Internalised

Not sure who I am Know who I'm meant to be Which story today It's getting harder to breathe Long hair, flowing dress Am I the woman society wants me to be? Is the threat real Or is it in my head? I wish I could read their minds Come clean I'll set me free Is it all internalised? Girlfriend A word I can't get off my tongue Can I call you my friend What does it matter anyway? Drop your hand Look the other way Too many years of hiding in the shade Wrapped in shame Is the threat real Or is it in my head? I wish I could read their minds Come clean I'll set me free Is it all internalised? I want to leave my head Tear down the walls Hold your hand in mine Out in the light And for the first time in my life I'm proud to call you mine For the first time in my life I'm proud to call you mine To call you, to call you mine To call you, to call you mine (I feel the shame melt away I feel the shame melt away) To call you, to call you mine To call you, to call you mine (I feel the shame melt away I feel the shame melt away) I feel the shame melt away (Hold me close) I feel the shame melt away
