Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the shadows of the world I built,
Through the cracks, the light spills in.
The outer shell begins to fade,
Revealing truths beneath the skin.
I’ve clung to forms, I’ve held them tight,
Believed in pieces to make me whole.
But the whispers call from deep inside,
“It’s you, it’s you,” says my soul.
[Chorus]
It’s not this piece that makes me free,
Not the shapes or the things I see.
Through the breaking, I can find,
The light that’s always been inside.
It’s not the art, it’s not the frame,
It’s the fire that burns beyond the name.
It’s you, it’s you—it’s always been,
The self that lies beneath the skin.
[Verse 2]
The edges crumble, the circle bends,
No beginning, no end in sight.
The iron rusts, the red still bleeds,
Yet through the pain comes the light.
Each wound, a door, each scar, a key,
Unlocking paths I couldn’t see.
Through the chaos, I now know,
It’s in the letting go we grow.
[Chorus]
It’s not this piece that makes me free,
Not the shapes or the things I see.
Through the breaking, I can find,
The light that’s always been inside.
It’s not the art, it’s not the frame,
It’s the fire that burns beyond the name.
It’s you, it’s you—it’s always been,
The self that lies beneath the skin.
[Bridge]
Oh, the circle spins, the lines collapse,
The mind dissolves into the vast.
No duality, no masks remain,
Just the infinite, just the flame.
Let it burn, let it rise,
Through the ashes, we realize.
It’s not the form, it’s not the prize,
It’s the love that never dies.
[Chorus]
It’s not this piece that makes me free,
Not the shapes or the things I see.
Through the breaking, I can find,
The light that’s always been inside.
It’s not the art, it’s not the frame,
It’s the fire that burns beyond the name.
It’s you, it’s you—it’s always been,
The self that lies beneath the skin.
[Outro]
It’s not this piece, it’s always you,
The timeless truth that sees me through.
Beyond the cracks, beyond the form,
I find the love where I was born.
