Verse 1
Woke up again with the weight on my chest
Another day pretending I’m stronger than the rest
Fabric on my shoulders, stitched tight to the skin
But underneath the armor, it’s breaking within
Pre-Chorus
Every step they cheer like I’m made of steel
But nobody asks if I’m allowed to feel
Chorus
What kind of stable man
Wants to wake up, wear a mask again?
Tie up a cape just to play pretend
While the cracks keep caving in
I don’t wanna fly above it all
I don’t wanna never fall
I just wanna bleed like everyone
Let me hurt till the healing’s done
Verse 2
They paint me gold, like I’m built for the fight
Like I don’t lie awake every single night
Saving the world but I’m losing myself
Every scar I hide just sits on the shelf
Pre-Chorus
They see a symbol, not a human soul
Not the shaking hands when I lose control
Chorus
What kind of stable man
Wants to wake up, wear a mask again?
Tie up a cape just to play pretend
While the cracks keep caving in
I don’t wanna fly above it all
I don’t wanna never fall
I just wanna bleed like everyone
Let me hurt till the healing’s done
Bridge
If I drop the suit, would I disappear?
Or finally face every buried fear?
No more pretending I’m bulletproof
No more hiding from the truth
Break
Let me feel it
Every cut, every bruise
If I’m human
I’ve got nothing to lose
Final Chorus
What kind of stable man
Keeps standing tall when he barely can?
Holding the sky with a broken hand
Just to fit in their demands
I don’t wanna be their shield
I don’t wanna never yield
I just wanna bleed like everyone
Let me hurt till the healing’s done
Outro
Cape on the floor, I can finally breathe
Not a hero now… just a man underneath
