Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I laugh at the table
I know how to blend
Hold my plate with both hands
Like I’m just a friend
They pass around stories
I miss the first line
I nod at the right parts
But I’m out of time
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep my mouth closed
Keep my face small
Say I’m okay
When I’m feeling it all
I rehearse the words
Then I let them fade
Like they’d only make it
Harder to stay
[Chorus]
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
I’m right there, but I’m gone
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
And I don’t say it’s wrong
I want to be closer
(Closer, closer)
I want to belong
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
And I don’t say it out loud
[Verse 2]
There’s a spot by the window
That saves me some grace
I can watch the whole room
Without taking space
I smile at the laughter
I miss in my chest
Wonder if anybody
Notices the rest
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep my mouth closed
Keep my face small
Say I’m okay
When I’m feeling it all
I rehearse the words
Then I let them fade
Like they’d only make it
Harder to stay
[Chorus]
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
I’m right there, but I’m gone
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
And I don’t say it’s wrong
I want to be closer
(Closer, closer)
I want to belong
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
And I don’t say it out loud
[Bridge]
If I say it once
Will it crack the room?
Will they look right through me
Like a faded wound?
But I’m tired of holding
All this in my throat
Maybe being honest
Is the first step home
[Chorus]
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
I’m right there, but I’m gone
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
And I don’t say it’s wrong
I want to be closer
(Closer, closer)
I want to belong
I’m outside the circle
(Outside the circle)
But I’m learning how to say it now

Alt-pop ballad with a slow swaying pulse and muted kick-snare, sparse verse guitar over a soft bass drone; pre-chorus opens with rising pads and clipped handclaps, chorus lifts into wide piano chords and a singable hook. Female vocals, intimate close-mic verses, stacked doubles on the chorus, with delay throws on the last word and breathy harmony tails. Ear candy includes reversed swells into the pre, a bell tone after the first hook, and a final lift with subtle string blooms. Bright but tender mix, polished and emotional., emotional
