It Is Me
MITUB3R
So many tries to act like I'm strong
Staring down as you pass along
Always pretending you weren't my North
When you were my compass, of course
I kept silence for fear of losing you
Got used to saying: No to the truth
But there are secrets that can't hide away
And this one burns in my voice today
If I never stopped the want for you
Why keep running from what's true?
Now I'm finally letting you see
No more pretending, I'm breaking free
I'll say it fearless, face to face
So you see the love I hold in this place
If my voice shakes, let it be from you
If I fall, let it be towards you
'Cause everything I silenced, keeping it new
Today dares to say: It is me, it's true
So many nights talking to the ceiling
Repeating your name, a hidden feeling
Imagining how the moment would be
To stop just dreaming and touch you finally
Lying to the mirror doesn't work no more
Saying it'll pass like before
'Cause desire has learned the way
And it doesn't plan to walk away
If I never stopped the want for you
Why deny what lives inside you?
Now I'm finally letting you see
No more pretending, I'm breaking free
I'll say it fearless, face to face
So you see the love I hold in this place
Let the world hear it if they want to hear
Let the silence break, bring it near
Today I choose me, let go of the fear
And I tell you without fear
If you stay, I promise truth
If you go, at least you'll know for sure
That what I felt was real and deep
Not a game, but a promise to keep
Now I'm finally letting you see
No more pretending, I'm breaking free
I'll say it fearless, face to face
So you see the love I hold in this place
Let the world hear it if they want to hear
Let the silence break, bring it near
Today I choose me, let go of the fear
And I tell you without fear: I am here
Now I'm finally letting you see
No more pretending, I'm breaking free
I'll say it fearless, and if it hurts
It's worth the pain, it's worth the words
Look slowly at what I keep inside
All this love that learned to rise
'Cause I never stopped the want for you
And I don't want to stop it, it's true
'Cause everything I silenced, keeping it new
Today dares to say: It is me
Now I'm finally letting you see
No more pretending, I'm breaking free
I'll say it fearless, and if it hurts
It's worth the pain, it's worth the words
Look slowly at what I keep inside
All this love that learned to rise
'Cause I never stopped the want for you
And I don't want to stop it, it's true
'Cause I never stopped the want for you
And I don't to stop it, it's true
