Already Known

You keep speaking in circles Like the room doesn’t know its own name Same lines, different lighting But it lands all the same We’ve heard the confession We’ve memorized the blame You’re dressing up answers That don’t change a thing And I don’t need saving I don’t need the speech If you’re talking to echoes Then what are you reaching? Don’t preach to the choir We already feel it in our bones Don’t light up a fire Just to watch what we already know Say it like it’s new Or let the silence do What your words won’t do You’re polishing certainty Like it’s something alive But it’s just repetition In a different disguise I’m not rejecting the truth here I’m rejecting the loop If you want me to hear you Then break the truth in two Don’t preach to the choir We’ve been singing it low for years Don’t build a higher tower Just to echo what disappears If it’s only review Then I’m losing you To what we already knew
