I See You Now

Intro (guitar riff only — let it breathe)

Verse 1

You hide behind a colder name

Like it keeps you safe

Lights flash, people scream

But I see your face

You talk like you’re untouchable

Like noise makes you strong

But when the room goes quiet

You don’t last long

Pre-Chorus (voice cracking allowed)

I watched you play a part

I watched you fake the crown

But the longer you kept talking

The more you let me down

Chorus (ANGRY, SING IT HARD)

I SEE YOU NOW

NO ICE, NO THRONE

JUST A MAN

SCARED TO BE ALONE

I HEAR YOU LOUD

BUT I FEEL YOU WEAK

YOU BUILT A KING

OUT OF MAKE-BELIEVE

Verse 2 (faster, almost shouted)

You need the crowd to breathe

Need the lights to stand

I don’t need a name

To know who I am

You play god behind the sound

But gods don’t shake

I’ve been breaking myself in half

While you’ve been playing fake

Chorus (repeat, angrier)

I SEE YOU NOW

THE MASK CAME DOWN

ALL THAT ICE

JUST DROWNED YOU OUT

YOU TALK LIKE FIRE

BUT YOU BURN OUT FAST

I’LL STILL BE HERE

WHEN YOU’RE THE PAST

Outro (let guitar take over, one last line)

I see you now.
