[Intro: Soft piano and somber bass] [Verse 1 : Quiet, breathy vocals] I check the mirror, but the image is blurred By every judgment and every word I’m walking a line that I didn’t choose In a game where it feels like I’m born to lose I keep the colors locked deep inside Because there’s nowhere for me to hide When the world looks at me with a sideways glance And never even gives my heart a chance. [Pre-Chorus : Building tension, snare rolls] And I’m tired of the acting Tired of the ghost Of the person they think That they love the most. [Chorus : Explosive, high energy, distorted guitars] So if I’m different, does it mean I’m wrong? Must I rewrite my life just to belong? I’m just a soul with a different light Trying to make it through the dark of the night I want to be held, I want to be known I’m sick of building this life on my own I just want to be loved, is that a crime? Like every human, one heartbeat at a time. (Verse 2) I wear the mask just to fit in the crowd While the silence in me is screaming so loud A different rhythm, a different flame But the blood in my veins still feels the same I’m looking for mercy, I’m looking for grace In a world that won’t look at my real face But I’m not a shadow, and I’m not a sin I’m just a person trying to let someone in. [Bridge : Sudden drop, emotional and stripped back] Sometimes I think I should just walk away From the parts of myself I’m forced to betray But I deserve a life that is more than a lie Under the same vast and open sky. (Chorus) So if I’m different, does it mean I’m wrong? Must I rewrite my life just to belong? I’m just a soul with a different light Trying to make it through the dark of the night I want to be held, I want to be known I’m sick of building this life on my own I just want to be loved, is that a crime? Like every human, one heartbeat at a time. [Outro : Fading piano, mournful vocals] One heartbeat at a time... Yeah, I just want to be loved... Just like you... Just like you.
