[Verse 1] They said I’d fit if I learned their lines, Smiled just right, stayed in time, Kept it clean, kept it bright— Never strayed too far from light. I tried to shape what they’d accept, Cut down parts I should’ve kept, Smoothed the edges, played it through— Like that was what I had to do. [Pre-Chorus] They said I’d shine if I stayed in place, If I wore the right kind of face… But it never felt like mine. [Chorus] I’m not made for it, I see it clear now, I don’t need their light somehow, Let them stand where it all looks right— I was never built for that kind of life Don’t call me back, don’t say my name, I don’t fit inside your frame, If I never belonged that way— Then I won’t try to stay [Verse 2] I watched them move like they always knew, Every step fitting what they grew into, Clean lines, no cracks to show— Everything I couldn’t hold. Every time I tried to blend, Something in me wouldn’t bend, Like a fault line under skin— Breaking every time I fit in. [Pre-Chorus] They said I’d shine if I stayed in place, If I wore the right kind of face… But it never felt like mine. [Chorus] I’m not made for it, I see it clear now, I don’t need their light somehow, Let them stand where it all looks right— I was never built for that kind of life Don’t call me back, don’t say my name, I don’t fit inside your frame, If I never belonged that way— Then I won’t try to stay [Bridge] Maybe I was never wrong— Just never meant to belong, In something clean, something bright… Something built to feel like right [Final Chorus] I’m not made for it, I see it clear now, I don’t need their light somehow, Let them stand where it all looks right— I was never built for that kind of life Don’t call me back, don’t say my name, I don’t fit inside your frame, If I never belonged that way— Then I won’t try to stay [Outro] They can keep what feels like home… I think I’ve found my own.
