[Intro — whispered]
Mmm...
I don't wanna fight you...
I don't wanna lose...
(soft slow piano starts, then faint guitar joins in, heartbeat-like pulse in background)
[Verse 1]
You laugh like the sun through the window,
I feel like a ghost in my skin.
I hate the way it twists inside me,
When all I ever wanted was to let you win.
I’m tired of the race,
Tired of the fear,
Tired of the voice that screams
“You’ll never be near.”
[Pre-Chorus] (voice floats higher, trembling)
It’s not you...
It’s not even me...
It’s all the lies that taught me
Love has to bleed...
[Chorus] (full beat but soft, emotional)
I don’t wanna fight you,
I don’t wanna lose.
I don’t wanna hate you just for being you.
Wish I could stand beside you,
Not behind you in the dark,
Wish the world didn't make me tear myself apart.
I don’t wanna fight you...
I just wanna be enough.
[Verse 2] (beat drops softer again)
They count the gold in our smiles,
They weigh our worth like it’s sold.
I fold myself smaller to please them,
But you shine and I feel so cold.
It’s not the way you love,
It’s the way they see,
Like we can’t both be stars
In the same galaxy.
[Pre-Chorus] (even more vulnerable)
It’s not you...
It’s not even me...
It’s all the scars
They stitched into me...
[Chorus] (fuller again, more aching)
I don’t wanna fight you,
I don’t wanna lose.
I don’t wanna hate you just for being you.
Wish I could stand beside you,
Not behind you in the dark,
Wish the world didn't make me tear myself apart.
I don’t wanna fight you...
I just wanna be enough.
[Bridge] (almost whispered, heartbreaking)
Maybe one day I’ll love myself too,
Maybe one day, standing by you
Won't feel like drowning...
Won't feel like losing...
[Final Chorus] (explodes a little bigger but still delicate — think “lovely” level emotion)
I don’t wanna fight you,
I don’t wanna lose.
I don’t wanna hate you just for being you.
Wish I could stand beside you,
Not behind you in the dark,
Wish the world didn't make me tear myself apart.
I don’t wanna fight you...
I just wanna be enough.
[Outro — fading like a dream]
I just wanna be enough...
I just wanna be enough...
(soft piano echo fading out)
