Round in a square world

[Intro ]
Woke up this morning
Sadness laying next to me
She acts like she’s healing
But she’s just reopening memories

[Verse 1]
Told her “get the hell out” — she laughed
Said, “Baby, I live here rent-free”
She brought her little first-aid kit
But it feels like surgery
Heavy chest, throat tight
Tears climbing up quietly
Damn…
Been years since they visited me
She’s good at her job
Knows every crack in my armor
Maybe I’ll write this song in English
Maybe it’ll hurt a little softer
Maybe if I don’t fully understand it
It won’t fully understand me
Out here success is popularity
So I’m already losing, apparently

[Pre-Chorus]
They say “tell your secrets — that’s the key”
Even if it don’t pay the lease
If you don’t like sad songs
You could’ve read before you clicked on me
Nobody forced you to stay
But everybody got something to say

[Chorus]
They want me fitting in a square
But I’ve always been round
They say I don’t belong anywhere
But they never let me be found
Hearts in the comments, screens lighting up
Still feel alone in a crowded room
The worst thing ain’t dying alone
It’s being loved — and still feeling removed

[Verse 2 ]
Crazy winters, endless nights
This déjà vu won’t let me breathe
Watching myself from the outside
Like I’m not the one living me
If I was really who I am
Would I still be standing here?
If I showed up without a mask
Would they disappear?
Humans are strange
We connect through glass and pixels
Say “I’m good” with a smiley face
While falling apart a little
Yeah…
Weird world.

Outro]
Round in a square world…
Trying not to break the corners…
