(Intro)
The mirror in the room looks at you reproachfully, you walk past with your eyes downcast.
Everything is smooth on the outside, but lonely on the inside.
Look how they do... do as they do.
No one should notice what's inside...
(Verse 1)
In a world, a world so hopeless and cold,
I saw a reflection — a light to hold.
Yeah, it hurt, and it was hard to get through,
But please stay yourself — that’s what makes you you.
And it’ll get better, yeah, brighter too.
Cause I miss who you were before,
Don’t fake that smile like you did once more.
Don’t hide the pain when you’re with me,
Just let it out — just let me see.
I know the hell you’ve been dragged through,
I feel the weight that lives in you.
So say it low, don’t push away
—Just tell it all… to me, don’t fade.
(Chorus)
You’re terrified of who you are,
The one who’s burning like a star.
You keep the shutters locked and tight
To keep your colors out of sight.
But this house is getting way too small,
Shadows dancing on the wall.
You’re the masterpiece the world won’t see
Until you set the prisoner free.
(Verse 2)
I would set you free, but you won’t allow it,
I would save your soul, but you’d melt without it.
What’s more to you — this broken world or me?
Just choose me now… choose only me.
I know I’m drowning deep in misery,
But all this pity’s slowly killing me.
I tried to be the ground beneath your feet,
It’s sad you’re someone I could never reach.
(Bridge)
The sky won’t fall if you get loud.
The sun won't fade behind the cloud.
There is a fire in your veins,
It’s time to break these quiet chains.
(Chorus)
You’re terrified of who you are,
The one who’s burning like a star.
You keep the shutters locked and tight
To keep your colors out of sight.
But this house is getting way too small,
Shadows dancing on the wall.
You’re the masterpiece the world won’t see
Until you set the prisoner free.
(Outro)
Just take a step.
Just let it out.
It’s okay to be seen.
It’s okay...
