[Intro: Piano emotional sparse, guitar clean arpeggiated - 97 BPM] [Eb minor, bass subtle, no drums, tape echo] [Intimate atmosphere establishing, fragile] [4 bars - loneliness, stillness, invisible] [Verse 1: Vocals clean whispered intimate - 97 BPM] [Piano sparse, guitar clean delicate, no drums] [Bass subtle, space, breath, vulnerable] I stand in the room And the room forgets me Conversations move around Like water around stone I open my mouth But the air takes nothing Words dissolve before They reach anyone [Guitar clean arpeggiated responding - 2 bars] [Piano sustaining, tape echo trailing] [Verse 2: Vocals clean building emotional raw - 97 BPM] [Guitar clean fuller, bass entering heavy, drums entering] [Piano driving gentle, building tension] I wear my skin like glass And they look straight through Not blind just unwilling To see what costs them time I carry who I am Like contraband beneath my ribs Smuggling myself through days That never check my name [Pre-Chorus: Vocals intense building to breaking - 97 BPM] [Guitar distorted entering, drums building powerful] [Bass heavy driving, piano holding, dark harmonies] And the weight of being unseen Is heavier than any fist Because a fist at least Acknowledges you exist [Chorus: Vocals screamed raw explosive cracking - 97 BPM] [Full band crushing, guitar heavy distorted maximum] [Drums explosive, bass heavy driving, grunge weight] [Then pulling back to clean emotional for last lines] See through me(me) Like I was never standing here See through me(me) Like glass that learned to bleed I am screaming in a language No one chose to learn See through me And tell me what you found(found) [Guitar heavy distorted solo emotional - 97 BPM] [8 bars - raw, anguished, not technical] [Bass heavy, drums powerful, tape echo] [Post-hardcore intensity, j-rock emotional phrasing] [Verse 3: Vocals whispered stripped bare - 97 BPM] [Piano alone, guitar clean distant, no drums] [Bass gone, space, the most vulnerable moment] I tried to build a door In the walls around me Cut a window in my chest So someone could look in But the glass I made Was too clear to notice And the door I built Opened to an empty hall(hall) [Verse 4: Vocals building emotional desperate - 97 BPM] [Guitar clean building to distorted, drums returning] [Bass heavy entering, piano driving, tension mounting] The cocoon was not protection It was just the only shape That fit the space they gave me Between invisible and gone I want to shed this skin And stand here raw and named But who will stay to witness What they never wanted to see [Pre-Chorus: Vocals raw emotional cracking - 97 BPM] [Guitar distorted building, drums explosive building] [Bass heavy, dark vocal harmonies entering] And dying is not always A body on the floor Sometimes dying is A voice that no one hears anymore [Chorus: Vocals screamed maximum then collapsing to clean - 97 BPM] [Full band crushing maximum, grunge weight, post-hardcore fire] [Guitar heavy distorted, drums explosive, bass crushing] See through me(me) Like I was never worth the pause See through me(me) Like something human is too much to hold I am burning in a room Where no one smells the smoke See through me And tell me what was lost(lost) [Bridge: Vocals clean intimate broken honest - 97 BPM] [Piano alone with voice, nothing else] [Silence, breath, the confession] I do not want your pity I want your eyes Not to fix me Just to find me Just once To be seen Not through But into [Guitar building from clean to crushing crescendo - 97 BPM] [4 bars - everything returning for final] [Final Chorus: Vocals alternating scream and clean - 97 BPM] [Everything together, maximum weight, maximum vulnerability] [Post-hardcore fire and grunge devastation united] See through me(me) Or see me I no longer care which See through me(me) At least it means you looked I am standing in the fire I built from being nothing See through me I am still here(here) I am still here [Outro: Piano fading sparse, guitar clean distant - 97 BPM] [Bass gone, drums gone, tape echo carrying] [Vocal echo trailing into emptiness] [Vocals distant whispered breaking] Still here(here) [Piano final chord Ebm sustained, fading to silence]
