So many tries to act like I'm strong Staring down as you pass along Always pretending you weren't my North When you were my compass, of course I kept silence for fear of losing you Got used to saying: No to the truth But there are secrets that can't hide away And this one burns in my voice today If I never stopped the want for you Why keep running from what's true? Now I'm finally letting you see No more pretending, I'm breaking free I'll say it fearless, face to face So you see the love I hold in this place If my voice shakes, let it be from you If I fall, let it be towards you 'Cause everything I silenced, keeping it new Today dares to say: It is me, it's true So many nights talking to the ceiling Repeating your name, a hidden feeling Imagining how the moment would be To stop just dreaming and touch you finally Lying to the mirror doesn't work no more Saying it'll pass like before 'Cause desire has learned the way And it doesn't plan to walk away If I never stopped the want for you Why deny what lives inside you? Now I'm finally letting you see No more pretending, I'm breaking free I'll say it fearless, face to face So you see the love I hold in this place Let the world hear it if they want to hear Let the silence break, bring it near Today I choose me, let go of the fear And I tell you without fear If you stay, I promise truth If you go, at least you'll know for sure That what I felt was real and deep Not a game, but a promise to keep Now I'm finally letting you see No more pretending, I'm breaking free I'll say it fearless, face to face So you see the love I hold in this place Let the world hear it if they want to hear Let the silence break, bring it near Today I choose me, let go of the fear And I tell you without fear: I am here Now I'm finally letting you see No more pretending, I'm breaking free I'll say it fearless, and if it hurts It's worth the pain, it's worth the words Look slowly at what I keep inside All this love that learned to rise 'Cause I never stopped the want for you And I don't want to stop it, it's true 'Cause everything I silenced, keeping it new Today dares to say: It is me Now I'm finally letting you see No more pretending, I'm breaking free I'll say it fearless, and if it hurts It's worth the pain, it's worth the words Look slowly at what I keep inside All this love that learned to rise 'Cause I never stopped the want for you And I don't want to stop it, it's true 'Cause I never stopped the want for you And I don't to stop it, it's true
