**[Instrumental Intro]**

**[Language: English]**

**[Verse 1]**

Don’t measure me by your own design,

You can’t see the cracks that lie within.

Every step

I take, you’ll find,

For you, it’s dust,

For me, it’s where I’ve been.

**[Verse 2]**

I build my bridges from shattered words,

Where you see smoke,

I see the fire.

My wounds are whispers, my secret urge,

My world was quiet,

But never a liar.

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Don’t try to fit me in your shadows,

I shine brighter

Than your narrow views.

**[Chorus]**

Don’t measure me by your own design,

You don’t know

What’s deep inside.

I’m like the ocean,

With secrets untold,

You can’t confine me...

Oh...

**[Verse 3]**

Your gaze cuts sharp,

Like a knife,

Words rain down,

Like a stormy fight.

But who are you

To judge my life,

When you’re not pure,

In your own light?

**[Chorus]**

Don’t measure me by your own design,

You don’t know

What’s deep inside.

I’m like a hurricane,

Wild and alive,

You can’t confine me...

Oh...

***

Don’t measure me by your own design...

Don’t measure me by your own design...

Don’t measure me by your own design...

**[Bridge]**

Don’t seek the answers where they don’t exist,

My world’s more complex

Than your black-and-white mist.

Break down the barriers,

Shatter the glass,

And maybe you’ll see

What I’ve kept in the past...

**[Verse 4]**

Don’t cage me in with your rules,

Your boundaries feel like alien skin.

You look in the mirror,

But see me instead,

But I am me,

And I’m not what you’ve said...

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Don’t try to break my wings,

I fly higher

Than your feeble strings.

**[Chorus]**

Don’t measure me by your own design,

You don’t know

What’s deep inside.

I’m like a hurricane,

Wild and alive,

You can’t confine me...

Oh...

**[Verse 5]**

My steps on shards of broken glass,

My voice a thunder, a whisper in the calm.

Don’t try to build my world for me,

Each has their path,

Each has their star.

**[Conclusion]**

Your rules are just mere lines,

And I live beyond the blueprint.

Your judgment is just noise,

But I hear my own beat.

Your boundaries are illusions,

And I’m beyond the fire.
