Wait, find my patience
Can I change this
Is this stasis
When I wake up, am I the same one
Recognize, but not rearrange us
My skin, exposed and left on read
Can I love myself and still say less
If I let you in for just this once will you let go
My thoughts aligned to what you’ve said
Am I really me or am I you instead?
If I drop my guard for just this once I would hope I know
I need to remind myself
Don't rewrite yourself
Don't define yourself
By the ways in which you hide your health
There's no need to resign your wealth
I need to remind myself
Don't refind yourself
It's inside yourself
In all the parts you've kept expelled
Take advantage of the cards you’re dealt
Who I am
What I was
What I could become
It was always here but never left my throat
If this is real, why should I lie and let it get so numb
A space like a hug
I need to remind myself
Don't rewrite yourself
Don't define yourself
By the ways in which you hide your health
There's no need to resign your wealth
I need to remind myself
Don't refind yourself
It's inside yourself
In all the parts you've kept expelled
Take advantage of the cards you’re dealt
