歌詞

Nothing has started, nothing is done

Still you write like the credits have run

All of your heartbreak, your friends and your love

Calling your family, thanking above

The starting line is still out of sight

But you walk in like you won the fight

You never lost, you never prevailed

Still you narrate like the final scene played

You understand me, right? You feel the same inside

Trading your prearranged likes Till the lie feels verified

No applause yet

The curtain hasn’t risen

Still you stand beneath the spotlight

Lost in your own grand finale

No applause yet

The show has not begun

Every comeback, fall and victory

Was a title you made up

“Numbers aren’t everything,” you insist

Only when your name is missing the list

“I never made this just to get known”

You say it the loudest when you feel alone

“I want you to see the real me tonight”

While staring through a screen for the light

Choosing the version you want them to know

Editing truth till it’s ready to show

I won’t question you You won’t measure me

We call avoidance kindness And sign mutual amnesty

No applause yet

The curtain hasn’t risen

Still you stand beneath the spotlight

Lost in your own grand finale

No applause yet

The show has not begun

Every comeback, fall and victory

Was a title you made up

Before you thank them all by name

Tell me what you changed, what still remains

You call the silence proof you’re rare

Turn being ignored into chosen despair

You never moved another soul

You moved yourself with the words you wrote

On a stage with no one in the room

You scream for one more song on cue

No applause yet

The curtain hasn’t risen

Every comeback, fall and victory

Was a title you had written

No applause yet

The show has not begun
