Can You See Me?

Can you see me without all the shine? Without all the ways I keep saying I’m fine? Behind all the smiling, the trying, the show, There’s a girl I was taught not to know. I’ve folded her words where nobody goes, Kept every truth underneath my clothes. If I take off every mask and let the whole world see, Would you still like, love, the me I never got to be? All the parts I hid away, all the hurt I couldn’t speak If I stand here with my heart unguarded, would you stay with me? Can you see the secrets I’ve kept out of sight? The pages I closed before they saw light? I learned how to laugh when I wanted to cry, To make myself small so the questions passed by. But I’m tired of living as someone approved; There’s a voice in me asking to be heard, too. If I take off every mask and let the whole world see, Would you still like, love, the me I never got to be? All the parts I hid away, all the hurt I couldn’t speak If I stand here with my heart unguarded, would you stay with me? I don’t need you to fix me. I just need to know I can be real here. That the truth won’t make me disappear. I’m taking off every mask. Let the whole world see. This is all the hurt and hope that make up me. All the parts I hid away are finding words to speak If I stand here with my heart unguarded, will you stay with me? Can you see me? I’m still learning how to see me. --- **CREDITS** Original song & lyrics by Dear LILLYLOVE123 (@csaenz). Remix sound and production by TENGÜRA. © 2026 LILLYLOVE123 & TENGÜRA | Collaboration.
