Behind my back

Verse 1

People are meant to talk, to share their thoughts aloud

We all crave connection, to be seen within the crowd

From every walk of life, we speak so freely, true

But tell me why those voices fade

When they’re meant to speak to you

Verse 2

I don’t know why they gather

To narrate someone else’s life

I know we all carry sorrow

And unseen, unspoken fights

But it cuts a little deeper

When the ones I used to trust

Are the hands that throw the stones

From the safety of the dust

Chorus

There are so many stories living behind my back

Scenes in this small town I never knew I had

They say everyone knows me, they say I’m the star

While rumors keep on brewing, tearing truth apart

Behind my back I’m traded, betrayed, and sold

Painted by their whispers, louder than what’s told

Bridge

Just stop talking behind my back

Can someone spare my soul from being sold?

I am who I am, no hidden act

Just a lonely soul in a silent world
