Outside the window, passing by
Two shadows with fingers interlaced, so shy
A profile laughing without a sound
Why does it stay in my heart, so profound?
To say "I’m jealous" wouldn't be enough
To describe this feeling, so strange and rough
My gaze has nowhere to go today
Melting into the city, fading away
"I’m fine just as I am"
I told myself again, like a hollow dam
But still, somewhere deep inside
Something is swaying, with nowhere to hide
Inside the night, about to break
I put on a face, for everyone's sake
It feels like everyone but me
Is moving forward, while I can't be free
Inside this room where nothing stays
I’m crying out in these lonely days
Hiding my true self, out of sight
So no one can hear me through the night
Flowing across the glowing screen
Familiar colors and lines I’ve seen
As long as I stay right here, you see
I don't have to become "anything" for me
"I want to change"—I left those words behind
Over and over, forgotten in my mind
I thought I was walking all this time
But I’m nowhere near the end of the climb
The longer I live, the more I find
I start to dislike the "me" in my mind
Even the reason why I want to be better
Has vanished like ink in an unwritten letter
Inside the night, out of my reach
Searching for a reason that I can't teach
The thing that never changed at all
Wasn't the world, but me, standing small
"It’s not a mistake"
"It’s just different, for your sake"
I just wanted someone
To say those words to me
Then suddenly one day
The eyes in the mirror had something to say
Without even asking, they let it fall
A truth that echoed through the hall
Ah, what have I done?
Through all these days under the sun
It’s not that I was running away
And yet
Even if I’m just a little late
I’ll take myself toward my own fate
I don't have to mimic anyone's way
Because I am right here, today
To this "today" with no right answer in sight
I don't have to conform to make it right
I am who I am
And that is enough for me
