Lyrics

I drew a picture like a sound

I created a representation in the form of sound

A broken image of myself

An incomplete and shattered portrayal of who I am

It turns around and mirrors me

This portrayal reflects back at me and imitates my actions

Then fades out

Then disappears gradually


This empty image of myself

My hollow representation

A different view from someone else

A perspective different from how others see me

It turns and slowly counts to three

It turns and slowly reaches a conclusion

Then it fades out, then fades out

Then disappears gradually, then disappears gradually


Why can't I be myself?

Questioning the inability to be genuine

I'm dying

Feeling like I'm losing myself

Still I need someone to help me out this time

Despite this, seeking assistance this time

So I'll never suffocate again

So I don't suffocate emotionally again


This lonely bed that I have made

A solitary situation I've created

I pray that nothing stays the same

Hoping for change in my circumstances

Forget these useless memories

Trying to let go of memories that serve no purpose

Let them fade out, let them fade out

Allowing them to gradually fade away


Why can't I be myself?

Continued frustration with inability to be authentic

I'm dying

Feeling like I'm losing myself

Still I need someone to help me out this time

Still seeking help in this instance

To stop me from breathing you in

To avoid being consumed by something

So I'll never suffocate again

So I don't suffocate emotionally again


Let me be, just let me be

Requesting for space and autonomy

Just let me be, just let me be

Emphasizing the plea for space

Just let me be, just let me be

Repeatedly asking for freedom to be oneself

Just let me be, let me be myself

To freely express who I am


Ohh

Exclamation of emotions


Stop me from breathing you in

Desire to avoid being overwhelmed by something or someone

So I'll never suffocate again

So I don't suffocate emotionally again
