Lyrics

I wore the shape they gave to me
A careful face, a smaller dream
I walked the room, I played the part
With borrowed hands around my heart
But under the noise, under the name
Something in me stayed the same
I wore the shape
I wore the shape
Till I couldn't feel
My own skin weight
I wore the shape
But it broke one day
Now I move like mine
Now I move my way
Move my way
Move my way
Now I move like mine
Move my way
They drew the lines, I learned to stay
Inside the frame they made me take
I smiled on cue, I kept it clean
But every mirror looked through me
But under the lights, under the game
Something in me called my name
I wore the shape
I wore the shape
Till I couldn't feel
My own skin weight
I wore the shape
But it broke one day
Now I move like mine
Now I move my way
Move my way
Move my way
Now I move like mine
Move my way
Let the old face fall
Let the glass turn clear
I was never gone
I was buried here
I wore the shape
I wore the shape
Till I couldn't feel
My own skin weight
I wore the shape
But it broke one day
Now I move like mine
Now I move my way
Move my way
Move my way
Now I move like mine
Move my way
