Lyrics
Intro
soft piano, very close vocal
(ooh)
Verse 1
Everyone says I light up the room
Like I was born just knowing what to do
Like I do not hesitate or lose
Like I do not feel it move
There is a version they all believe
That never doubts, that never leaves
But I am not always that complete
Some nights it is just me
Pre-Chorus
If I slow it down
It gets too loud
Chorus
Main character energy
That is what they see in me
But it fades when I am on my own
When the silence hits differently
Main character energy
Like it comes so naturally
But I am still learning how to be
Everything they think they see
Post-Chorus
(ooh) differently
(ooh) just me
Verse 2
I hold the look, I play the part
Keep it steady, keep it sharp
But underneath the perfect line
Something shifts I cannot hide
There is a weight I never show
In every place I seem to glow
If I stop and let it in
I do not know where to begin
Pre-Chorus
If I slow it down
It gets too loud
Chorus
Main character energy
That is what they see in me
But it fades when I am on my own
When the silence hits differently
Main character energy
Like it comes so naturally
But I am still learning how to be
Everything they think they see
Bridge
Maybe I do not need to shine
Every second, every time
Maybe I can let it fall
And still be something after all
Break
piano only
Main character
Main character
Final Chorus
Main character energy
That is what they see in me
But it stays when I let it be
Not who I am supposed to be
Main character energy
Maybe it is honesty
Maybe it is letting go
Of who I thought I had to be
Outro
(ooh) letting go
(ooh) just me
