(la la la la la)
(Verse 1)
They watch the way you walk, the way you move, the way you smile
Trace your steps like shadows, try to wear your style
They paint their faces, shape their voices, just to sound like you
But you’re staring in the mirror, wondering what is true
(Pre-Chorus)
They don’t see the weight you carry
(la la la la la)
They don’t hear the doubts inside
(la la la la la)
They just want the shining surface
Never know what’s left to hide
(la la la la la)
(Chorus)
Other people, they want to dress up as you
Wear your skin, steal your light, do the things that you do
But you’re standing here, lost in your own disguise
Trying to remember who you are inside
(la la la la la)
(Verse 2)
Every smile’s rehearsed, every word’s a scripted scene
You’re the idol, you’re the echo, but who are you between?
They chase your footprints, but you’re running out of track
They want to be you, but you just want yourself back
(Pre-Chorus)
They don’t feel the weight you carry
(la la la la la)
They don’t know the price you pay
(la la la la la)
They just see the painted picture
But not the colors washed away
(la la la la la)
(Chorus)
Other people, they want to dress up as you
Wear your skin, steal your light, do the things that you do
But you’re standing here, lost in your own disguise
Trying to remember who you are inside
(la la la la la)
(Bridge)
What if you let the mask fall down?
What if you showed them the cracks and doubt?
Would they still want to be like you?
Or would they finally see the truth?
(Outro – soft and haunting)
Other people, they want to dress up as you
But maybe you just want to step out of the costume too
(la la la la la)
Dayzzz
