Lyrics

I am not the mirror
Not the name they gave
I dissolve between reflections
In the silence I behave
I am not the answer
Not the wound you kissed
I am what escapes you
What you almost missed
I wear no shape
No fixed design
I move like water
I blur the line
Held in a whisper
Lost in a cry
Some days I’m fire
Some days I lie
Am I enough to hold myself?
(Without breaking, without bending?)
Can I exist beyond the skin?
(Without asking, without ending?)
Sometimes I don’t know where I begin.
Or who I am beneath the noise.
I try to trace myself in gestures, in the way I speak,
But it slips.
I thought I could name it—this thing called “me”—
But every name is a costume.
A defence. A performance.
I am tired of performance.
I want to be real.
Not for you.
Not for anyone.
But just…
Real.
When I close my eyes,
There’s a room.
And in that room is a body.
And in that body is a pulse.
It doesn’t ask to be defined.
It just is.
It’s afraid, and soft, and burning.
And maybe that’s enough.
I’m not your daughter
Not your prize
I shed the names
The careful lies
No map, no anchor
No north, no god
Just breath and trembling
And all I’m not
(Bridge – falsetto or vocoder)
I am becoming
I am unbecoming
I am the space
Between the humming
Can I be whole without a shape?
Can I be true without a face?
I’m not the roles I tried to play
I am the self
That walks away
