[Verse 1] I wore my name like woven thread, A crest to shield, a mask to bind. They saw the horns, the skin they dread— But never looked at what they’d find. [Verse 2] I danced alone in silent halls, Where whispers bloom and glances sting. But then a voice broke through the walls, And dared to ask what made me sing. [Chorus] You saw the flame they tried to hide, The tail that curled with quiet grace. You didn’t flinch, you didn’t chide— You simply met me face to face. [Verse 3] You spoke of stars beyond the shore, Of winds that carry names unknown. And I, who feared to ask for more, Now dream of gardens overgrown. [Bridge] If love is risk, then let it be— A storm that sails, a vow unmade. I’d rather fall and still be free Than live where truth must be betrayed. [Chorus (repeat)] You saw the flame they tried to hide, The tail that curled with quiet grace. You didn’t flinch, you didn’t chide— You simply met me face to face. [Outro] So let them talk, and let them stare, Their crowns are glass, their walls are thin. I’ll walk with you through open air— Where love begins, and masks grow dim.
