"Not For Show"

"Not For Show" (Verse 1) I don't chase the painted faces Or the filters in the frame I don't need a list of places Or a ticket tied to fame Give me eyes that tell a story Of a heart that knows my name Not a mask, not a glory Just the real thing, no game (Pre-Chorus) I don't want the highlight reel I want the quiet nights, the way you feel No designer heels or neon lights Just your hand in mine — that feels right (Chorus) I’m not gonna fall in line With the world and their design I want love that’s raw and true Not the dress but what’s inside of you I don't care for diamonds shine I want a heart that beats with mine No show, no lie — Just you and I (Verse 2) We won’t build a house on sand We’ll build it slow, we’ll build it strong Not for followers or brands But for a life where we belong I don’t need a stage or flashing signs Just your laughter in my quiet mind You and me, beneath the sky That’s where forever starts to rise (Pre-Chorus) I don’t want the highlight reel I want the mornings when it’s real No filters, no empty chase Just your soul shining on your face (Chorus) I’m not gonna fall in line With the world and their design I want love that’s raw and true Not the dress but what’s inside of you I don't care for diamonds shine I want a heart that beats with mine No show, no lie — Just you and I (Outro) I don’t want perfect, I want us A simple life, built on trust No show, no lie — Just you and I
