delikately - don't call me rose lyrics

Loading...

don’t call me rose
i wasn’t soft
i was silent. there’s a difference
you called it elegance
i called it survival

you didn’t love me
you loved the idea of who i almost became
the version that stayed quiet
smiled on cue
and made you feel important

i was never your sculpture
you didn’t chisel me into anything
you just tried to sand down what you couldn’t handle
i wasn’t your muse
i was the one holding the knife
and still, you called yourself the artist

you wanted someone obedient
i asked questions
you wanted me soft
i wanted to be understood
you wanted someone who whispered
i spoke. and you flinched
you needed a ghost
i had a pulse
you mistook my silence for grace
my detachment for devotion
you thought i was made to be admired
not to be reckoned with

so no
don’t call me rose
call me what i became
when silence stopped being safe
unmade. unmoved
unforgiving
and entirely mine
