VERSE 1
I chose the quiet, chose my own north,
No one was worthy, so I stayed my worth.
I locked my chest like a coded door,
Swore I was done—wanted nothing more.
Then you showed up like sudden sun,
Woke what I buried, undid what I’d done.
Wolves in the snow started waking up—
And I laughed like, “well… I don’t hate it.”
CHORUS
You shook the dust off the locks within — I don’t hate it,
You turned my quiet back into skin — I don’t hate it,
I don’t need saving, I saved my name — I don’t hate it,
But you bring heat without bringing shame — I don’t hate it,
So if it ends before it starts, I’m still all in — I don’t hate it,
’Cause you woke the wild I buried in — I don’t hate it,
And if you leave like the rest might do — I don’t hate it,
You made me remember what life can do — I don’t hate it.
VERSE 2
You chased me steady, no tricks, no act,
Kept your feet true on a faithful track.
I ran, I stalled, I tested the thread,
You stayed right there like, “not dead yet.”
I kept my crown on a razor line,
You chased me hard, but you gave me time.
That kind of patience? That kind of grace?
Yeah… it rewrote the room in my ribcage.
VERSE 3
I feared your staying more than your touch,
Feared you deciding I’m simply too much.
But you kept coming, calm and sure,
Like you weren’t scared of my weather anymore.
So I let the moment open wide,
Let hope roll in like a rising tide.
Not a fairytale—just something true,
And it felt like breath I forgot I knew.
BRIDGE
If you can’t hold me when storms get loud,
I’ll keep the heat you pulled from stone.
A lantern matters even when it’s gone—
It showed me I’m not alone.
FINAL CHORUS
You shook the dust off the locks within — I don’t hate it,
You turned my quiet back into skin — I don’t hate it,
I don’t need saving, I saved my name — I don’t hate it,
But you bring heat without bringing shame — I don’t hate it,
So if it ends before it starts, I’m still all in — I don’t hate it,
’Cause you woke the wild I buried in — I don’t hate it,
And if you leave like the rest might do — I don’t hate it,
You made me remember what life can do — I don’t hate it.
Verse 1
Chased love like it owed me air.
Called hunger “hope.” Called chaos “care.”
Made homes in tomorrows, beds in doubt—
one final crack, and the lights went out.
Closed doors. Bad timing. Same old song.
Red flags dressed up as “prove me wrong.”
Kept calling it fate—no, it was fear
wearing a familiar face.
Pre-Chorus
One more goodbye, hollow and cold…
and I’m done selling what I’ve sold.
No shatter.
Just… I choose me back.
Chorus
Maybe.
Not a no—just not the plan.
Maybe—because you showed up
where my “never” ran.
Maybe—my past still flinches inside,
but I don’t want to lose what I didn’t try.
Verse 2
Learned the shape of an empty room.
Learned how peace sounds when it’s only you.
Stopped romanticizing “someday.”
Stopped giving myself away.
Kept it small. Kept it clean. Kept it closed.
No midnight prayers. No bargaining vows.
And then… you.
No warning. No slow.
Just heat in the room.
Just… shift in the dark.
Pre-Chorus 2
Stay steady. Be smart. Don’t fold.
But my body says danger—my heart says hold.
Not because you’re wrong—
because my chest remembers
what fire costs.
Chorus
Maybe.
Not a no—just not the plan.
Maybe—because you showed up
where my “never” ran.
Maybe—my past still flinches inside,
but I don’t want to lose what I didn’t try.
Bridge
Not like the others.
Not asking—pulling.
Not taking—unearthing.
Warmth in the parts I quit to keep,
like fire threading through concrete sleep.
Melting what I iced for years,
pulling bright thread through old fears.
Unearthing pieces I buried clean—
like you can read what I don’t say.
It’s wonderful.
Too close. Too fast.
And I hate that I want it.
And I do.
Run. Stay.
Run. Stay.
Both true in the same damn day.
Final Chorus (bigger)
Maybe.
Not a no—just not the plan.
Maybe—because you showed up
where my “never” ran.
Maybe—my past still flinches inside,
but I don’t want to lose what I didn’t try.
Maybe—go slow. Don’t rush my fear.
I’m not back at the altar…
I’m here.
Outro
Maybe…
Maybe…
Not the map—

Verse 1
I grew in a paper-house,
where silence wore a crown.
Tears were taxed as treason,
so I learned to swallow sound.
Verse 2
When I spoke, they threw me names—
empty coins, cold shine.
No questions. No witness.
Just smoke where truth should rise.
Chorus
This is the unbecoming—
the dark catches fire.
I say what I am feeling
and the lie expires.
I let it burn through bone and breath,
I don’t bow to the shame.
This is the unbecoming—
I won’t answer to their name.
Verse 3
Some doors close on their own
when my pulse comes through.
What can’t hold my living voice
was never true.
Bridge
The hollow-fed love the tender.
They herd their ghost parade.
They knock on every back door
of the self you never saved.
But I’m not paper anymore—
I’m iron at the seam.
Their old tricks hit the surface
and drown in my new dream.
Verse 4
They trade in charm and favors,
wear borrowed light as sight.
Hunger calls itself a kingdom,
but it breeds in shade and night.
Chorus (Reprise)
This is the unbecoming—
the dark catches fire.
I speak it into daylight
and the lie retires.
I let it burn me honest,
I don’t kneel to the shame.
This is the unbecoming—
I won’t answer to their name.
Outro (Chant / Bind)
Same hands. Same reaching.
Bound and denied.
No claim, no cord, no passage
to this life.
Mine.

Verse 1
Moon girl—thin-veil, slow spell, soft refrain,
she steps and the air learns a different name.
Not flesh-first—more mist, more meaning unfurled,
a hush in a halo walking through the world.
She slips past the edges of straight-line time,
leaves bright little fractures in the dark’s own rhyme.
Not “shine for the crowd,” not “glow to be seen”—
she glows like a secret the night keeps clean,
by the light of the moon—soft-silver, true,
as if the dark whispers, I remember you.
Pre-Chorus
She looks up—
and the silence turns warm.
The moon threads light
through her ribs like a charm.
She doesn’t chase—
she receives, she stays—
and the awe comes down
in silver rays.
Chorus
Moon girl… moon girl… moon-held, moon-true,
dancing in the light like it’s pouring through.
Moon girl… moon girl… stardust trails,
soft as a prayer in the midnight gale.
Moon girl… moon girl… peace she finds—
resting in beams like a quiet kind,
by the light of the moon, she’s steady, she’s free—
a secret made visible, finally.
Verse 2
In the clearing in the woods, where the world goes still,
under moonlight pouring like a silver spill—
she moves to the song of her soul alone,
barefoot rhythm on moss and stone.
Pine-dark witnesses, leaves like lace,
night holds its breath when she finds her place.
She turns and the shadows loosen their grip,
as if every bruise is allowed to slip,
by the light of the moon—no mask, no role,
just the calm, slow curve of her living soul.
Pre-Chorus 2
The moon is her birthplace—
not a place, a pulse.
A mountain-spring glow
that rises, then runs.
It blankets the earth
as it leaves what it knows—
then it keeps going on
where the forever goes.
Chorus
Moon girl… moon girl… moon-held, moon-true,
dancing in the light like it’s pouring through.
Moon girl… moon girl… stardust trails,
soft as a prayer in the midnight gale.
Moon girl… moon girl… peace she finds—
resting in beams like a quiet kind,
by the light of the moon, she’s steady, she’s free—
a secret made visible, finally.
Bridge
When the day gets loud, when the world gets sharp,
she returns to the night like an opened heart.
The moon sings low—no words, no claim,
just a silver tone that calls her name.
A soul-song—felt, not heard, not told,
like water remembering it once was gold.
And all her edges—torn, unstrung—
get stitched by the light till she’s whole again.
Final Chorus
Moon girl… moon girl… moon-held, moon-known,
she dances like she’s never alone.
Moon girl… moon girl… stardust seams,
threading her peace through the moon’s pale beams.
Moon girl… moon girl… awe stays near—
the night turns tender when she’s here,
by the light of the moon, she becomes what she is—
not borrowed, not broken—just luminous.
Outro
She moves, she melts,
she’s gone too soon—
still held… still whole…
by the light of the moon.
Verse 1
Kings kept her small
For far too long
A shattered voice
Fueled a will so strong
Their cloaks sewn fine—
Their rule the same
Chain her chaos
To control the game
Chorus
To be a blessing, not a burden
Cherished & chosen
She was who she needed
To be safe & free
To just be
Verse 2
Dress her up
With binding twine
Biting pieces
Of her twilight shine
She built a cage
Of icy steel
But in her stare—
The false would peel
Lasers aimed,
Meltin’ the unreal
Chorus
To be a blessing, not a burden
Cherished & chosen
She was who she needed
To be safe & free
To just be
Verse 3 (new)
They taught her “peace”
Was staying tame,
To bite her tongue
And take the blame
They called it “love”
When it was chains,
A gilded crown
Of quiet pains
She bit her tongue
’Til iron bled,
Swallowed the poison
They called “instead”
She learned to read
What they concealed—
To watch the mask
And melt unreal
But in her bones
A signal grew—
A steady heat
That burned her through
Bridge / Verse 4
They ignorantly crafted
The bright blue flame
That boiled the tar
Of venomous shame.
Finally free
From their mental snare
Snapping the shackles
Of guilt & fear
Untethered by the
Dust of shade
Made into the warrior
Shielded by her blade
Final Chorus
To be a blessing, not a burden
Cherished & chosen
She was who she needed
To be safe & free
To just be
Close to the Light
Verse 1
She kept her eyes on the stars
Lived close to the light
Learned not to weigh her life
By the limits of sight
When the world pulled heavy
And the ground held tight
She lifted her gaze
So the weight lost the fight
Pre-Chorus
Everything shrinks when the view gets wide
When you remember your place in the sky
Chorus
She lived close to the light
Wouldn’t trade wonder for safe
All that is isn’t all that can be
If you’re brave enough to change
She lived close to the light
Let the dark tell no lies
Kept her heart open wide
With her eyes on the sky
Verse 2
They said, “Stay where it’s known
Don’t wander too far”
But comfort’s a quiet cage
With invisible bars
Nothing blooms without ache
Nothing heals without scars
Every rose learns its way
Through the thorns in the dark
Pre-Chorus
She chose the ache of becoming
Over the hush of the same
Chorus
She lived close to the light
Wouldn’t trade wonder for safe
All that is isn’t all that can be
If you’re brave enough to change
She lived close to the light
Let the dark tell no lies
Kept her heart open wide
With her eyes on the sky
She stepped into the quiet
Where the old fears fell through
What looked empty and broken
Was soil, deep and true
Stripped bare and nourished
By the dark underneath
Fear softened to stillness
Stillness taught her to breathe
She rose without armor
Looked up and knew
Home was never just here
It was always bigger than you
Final Chorus
She lived close to the light
Wouldn’t trade wonder for safe
All that is isn’t all that can be
If you’re brave enough to change
She lived close to the light
Even standing in dark
Kept her eyes on the stars
And remembered her spark
Outro
Close to the light
Eyes on the stars
Close to the light
That’s where home is
Verse 1
In borrowed shade I learned to bend,
Mistook his voice for my own wind.
When I reached out, I overgave—
A mouth of prayer, a quiet grave.
Pre-Chorus
I paid in light to feel it true,
But nothing good comes back from “use.”
Chorus
Never again—I won’t fold to fit,
Won’t trade my code for counterfeit.
Never again—I won’t bleed for proof,
Won’t build my breath under someone’s roof.
Alone’s not lonely—hear me then:
It’s peace, it’s air… it’s mine again.
Verse 2
Slow hush of rooms that ate my song,
My dreams hung up like borrowed cloth.
I lived as function, not as flame—
A silent yes, a borrowed name.
Pre-Chorus 2
He priced his kindness like a trade,
Said warmth is only what gets paid.
And in that moment—clean, precise—
Love showed its teeth and named the price.
Chorus
Never again—I won’t fold to fit,
Won’t trade my code for counterfeit.
Never again—I won’t beg for grace,
Won’t chase my face in a faceless place.
Alone’s not lonely—hear me then:
It’s peace, it’s air… it’s mine again.
Bridge (void)
I met the void—no bargain, no shame,
It didn’t want my blood or name.
It didn’t take, it didn’t keep,
It taught my bones to finally sleep.
Verse 3
She broke the seal of his airtight dream,
Pushed through the walls that held her unseen.
She’d been breathing his air, living on loan,
Now she’s found a world that’s truly her own.
Final Chorus
Never again—I won’t dim my sun,
I’m not half-held—I’m whole, I’m one.
Never again—I pack my name,
Walk out the door, still lit with flame.
Alone’s not lonely—hear me then:
I’m adored… and I’m mine again.
Never again.
Mine again.
Never again.

that rises, then runs.
It blankets the earth
as it leaves what it knows—
then it keeps going on
where the forever goes.
Chorus
Moon girl… moon girl… moon-held, moon-true,
dancing in the light like it’s pouring through.
Moon girl… moon girl… stardust trails,
soft as a prayer in the midnight gale.
Moon girl… moon girl… peace she finds—
resting in beams like a quiet kind,
by the light of the moon, she’s steady, she’s free—
a secret made visible, finally.
Bridge
When the day gets loud, when the world gets sharp,
she returns to the night like an opened heart.
The moon sings low—no words, no claim,
just a silver tone that calls her name.
A soul-song—felt, not heard, not told,
like water remembering it once was gold.
And all her edges—torn, unstrung—
get stitched by the light till she’s whole again.
Final Chorus
Moon girl… moon girl… moon-held, moon-known,
she dances like she’s never alone.
Moon girl… moon girl… stardust seams,
threading her peace through the moon’s pale beams.
Moon girl… moon girl… awe stays near—
the night turns tender when she’s here,
by the light of the moon, she becomes what she is—
not borrowed, not broken—just luminous.
Outro
She moves, she melts,
she’s gone too soon—
still held… still whole…
by the light of the moon.
Verse 1
Kings kept her small
For far too long
A shattered voice
Fueled a will so strong
Their cloaks sewn fine—
Their rule the same
Chain her chaos
To control the game
Chorus
To be a blessing, not a burden
Cherished & chosen
She was who she needed
To be safe & free
To just be
Verse 2
Dress her up
With binding twine
Biting pieces
Of her twilight shine
She built a cage
Of icy steel
But in her stare—
The false would peel
Lasers aimed,
Meltin’ the unreal
Chorus
To be a blessing, not a burden
Cherished & chosen
She was who she needed
To be safe & free
To just be
Verse 3 (new)
They taught her “peace”
Was staying tame,
To bite her tongue
And take the blame
They called it “love”
When it was chains,
A gilded crown
Of quiet pains
She bit her tongue
’Til iron bled,
Swallowed the poison
They called “instead”
She learned to read
What they concealed—
To watch the mask
And melt unreal
But in her bones
A signal grew—
A steady heat
That burned her through
Bridge / Verse 4
They ignorantly crafted
The bright blue flame
That boiled the tar
Of venomous shame.
Finally free
From their mental snare
Snapping the shackles
Of guilt & fear
Untethered by the
Dust of shade
Made into the warrior
Shielded by her blade
Final Chorus
To be a blessing, not a burden
Cherished & chosen
She was who she needed
To be safe & free
To just be
Close to the Light
Verse 1
She kept her eyes on the stars
Lived close to the light
Learned not to weigh her life
By the limits of sight
When the world pulled heavy
And the ground held tight
She lifted her gaze
So the weight lost the fight
Pre-Chorus
Everything shrinks when the view gets wide
When you remember your place in the sky
Chorus
She lived close to the light
Wouldn’t trade wonder for safe
All that is isn’t all that can be
If you’re brave enough to change
She lived close to the light
Let the dark tell no lies
Kept her heart open wide
With her eyes on the sky
Verse 2
They said, “Stay where it’s known
Don’t wander too far”
But comfort’s a quiet cage
With invisible bars
Nothing blooms without ache
Nothing heals without scars
Every rose learns its way
Through the thorns in the dark
Pre-Chorus
She chose the ache of becoming
Over the hush of the same
Chorus
She lived close to the light
Wouldn’t trade wonder for safe
All that is isn’t all that can be
If you’re brave enough to change
She lived close to the light
Let the dark tell no lies
Kept her heart open wide
With her eyes on the sky
She stepped into the quiet
Where the old fears fell through
What looked empty and broken
Was soil, deep and true
Stripped bare and nourished
By the dark underneath
Fear softened to stillness
Stillness taught her to breathe
She rose without armor
Looked up and knew
Home was never just here
It was always bigger than you
Final Chorus
She lived close to the light
Wouldn’t trade wonder for safe
All that is isn’t all that can be
If you’re brave enough to change
She lived close to the light
Even standing in dark
Kept her eyes on the stars
And remembered her spark
Outro
Close to the light
Eyes on the stars
Close to the light
That’s where home is
