maeve noiré - ragdoll reflex lyrics
i flinch before the footsteps even hit the floor
my body learned the warning signs years before
hands go up and i shrink without a thought
instinct moving faster than the battles i fought
shadows on the wall make my breath cut short
like i’m back in a room with the worst kind of noise
i brace for impact even when it’s calm—
silence never felt like a safe place to belong
i bend but don’t break—yeah, that’s my curse
i flinch at the love ’cause i’m braced for the hurt
pulled like a ragdoll, ripped at the seams
my reflex remembers what my mind wants to leave
i bend but don’t break, even shaking inside—
a body still fighting old battles i survived
people raise their hands and i pull back fast
doesn’t matter who it is or what they ask
my chest locks up like the door just slammed
every part of me expecting the next command
i know i’m grown now, i know i’m safe—
but trauma doesn’t listen when it’s in first place
every gentle moment feels like a test
waiting for the shift, the anger, the mess
i bend but don’t break—yeah, that’s my curse
i flinch at the love ’cause i’m braced for the hurt
pulled like a ragdoll, ripped at the seams
my reflex remembers what my mind wants to leave
i bend but don’t break, even shaking inside—
a body still fighting old battles i survived
yeah…
my body jerks before my logic works
wired to dodge every shock that hurts
mind goes blank when the tension lurks
heartbeats skip like a scratched+out verse
i’m twitchin’, flinchin’, instincts glitchin’
childhood rules still hold the position
fight+or+flight on a hairpin mission
trauma on loop like a bad transmission
every calm moment? feels suspicious
peace tastes fake, too clean, too vicious
waiting for the twist when the tone switches—
trained by pain, it became religious
i brace for the worst like a premonition
muscles pull tight with no permission
fear hits fast—perfect precision—
body keeps score with cruel revision
and i hate the way i fold, explode
reload every memory i never controlled
move too quick when emotions unfold—
a reflex built from a life i was sold
not weakness
just survival encoded
ragdoll reflex
trauma downloaded
one day maybe i’ll stand still
let a gentle touch just be real
let my heartbeat slow down
let my past stop coming around
but until the fear learns how to fade
i’m healing through the mess i’ve made
i bend but don’t break—yeah, that’s my curse
i flinch at the love ’cause i’m braced for the hurt
pulled like a ragdoll, torn at the seams
my reflex remembers what my mind wants to leave
i bend but don’t break, but i’m tired inside—
still fighting off ghosts i should’ve outgrown by now
still shaking…
still breathing…
still here…
still healing…
ragdoll reflex…
learning to rest
