Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I used to fold my edges in

Talk soft

Laugh it off

Then spin

Every truth into a smaller shape

So no one saw the cracks I taped

[Pre-Chorus]

But my eyes get tired from looking down

And my tongue gets sore from biting now

Every "fine" I say is heavy

And my hands keep shaking steady

[Chorus]

I wanna be naked in the light

Let the whole room see me cry

Let my scars spell out my name

I’m not broken

I’m just changed

I’m done hiding from my heart

Done pretending in the dark

If I love you

I won’t lie

I wanna be naked in the light (oh)

[Verse 2]

I learned to laugh right through the ache

To leave first

Just in case you flaked

Kept my “I love you” in the throat

Wrote your name

Then burned the note

[Pre-Chorus]

But your hands feel safe on all the seams

And your chest sounds quiet when I breathe

If I fall apart

Will you stay?

I’m so scared

I’ll say it anyway

[Chorus]

I wanna be naked in the light

Let the whole room see me cry

Let my scars spell out my name

I’m not broken

I’m just changed

I’m done hiding from my heart

Done pretending in the dark

If I love you

I won’t lie

I wanna be naked in the light

[Bridge]

Let the old shame go

Let the old ghosts fade

All the "too much" stories

I was taught to say

I forgive that girl

Who was small to survive

Now I’ll take up space

And I’ll stay alive (yeah)

[Chorus]

I’m gonna be naked in the light

If my voice shakes

That’s alright

Every tear is on my side

I’m not broken

I’m just bright

I’m done hiding from my heart

You can meet me where you are

If I love you

I’ll say it twice

I’m gonna be naked in the light (oh-oh)

Style

warm indie-pop ballad with female vocals; intimate piano and soft fingerpicked guitar in the versessubtle pads and low percussion building into a widerbrighter chorus. choruses lift with stacked harmonies and a steadypulsing kick; bridge strips back to near-silence before a finalconfident chorus with openringing chords and lingering reverb.emotional

Prompt

The song centers on emotional vulnerability and self-acceptance. Reflect on letting go of fear, past pain, and the urge to hide her true feelings. It’s about stepping into honesty—whether in love
