maeve noiré - deadpan lyrics

Loading...

woke up wearing someone’s skin
practiced smiles i can’t begin
every word is paper+thin
keeping all the dark locked in

they said, “be easy, be sweet, be small,”
i folded myself till i felt nothing at all
now every look feels like a wall —
i’m stuck behind it, scared to fall

if i let it slip, if i let them see
would they turn their backs on me?
better to be what they believe
than risk the hollow of goodbye

my face forgot how to feel for free
i learned to liе just to be seen
deadpan exprеssions, perfect disguise
better a ghost than left behind

bit my tongue until it bled
dreams i buried, smiles i fed
if i screamed, they’d leave instead
so i stitched the silence in my head

they loved the version i could fake
the one that didn’t break or ache
so i built a mirror that wouldn’t shake —
now even i can’t see what’s real
if i let it slip, if i let them see
would they turn their backs on me?
better to be what they believe
than risk the hollow of goodbye

my face forgot how to feel for free
i learned to lie just to be seen
deadpan expressions, perfect disguise
better a ghost than left behind

what if i’m too much?
what if i’m not enough?
would you still look at me

if i shattered clean?
what if i cried?
what if i burned?
would you just leave me behind?

my face forgot how to feel for free
taught myself how not to need
deadpan expressions, bury the light
better alone than left to die

stillness… stillness…
better a ghost… than left behind
