Where the Light Hit Me

[Verse 1] You found me laughing in someone else’s skin Wearing stories I’d been living in Didn’t ask for the truth, didn’t beg for the show Just sat in the silence and let me go You saw past the makeup, past the mask Didn’t flinch when I slipped through the cracks No spotlight, no stage Just me — afraid [Chorus] Where the light hit me, I came undone Like a storm rolling out, like the end of a run You looked at me and I saw it clear All the versions I had feared You didn’t break me — you let me be Right where the light hit me [Verse 2] There was no speech, no perfect line Just a hand on mine when the noise declined You weren’t the answer — you weren’t the cause But in your calm, I found what I’d lost The mirror blinked and I saw her face The one I buried to keep my place You didn’t fix it, didn’t try You just stood there and let me cry [Chorus] Where the light hit me, I came undone Like a breath I held for way too long You looked at me and I saw it clear All the shame and all the years You didn’t save me — you let me see Right where the light hit me [Verse 3] Now I walk slower, but I stand tall Speak my name without the walls It wasn’t love — not in that way But it changed me all the same I still wear glitter, I still wear lace But now I see more than just the face I carry that stillness like a spark That night you lit up the dark [Bridge] I don’t know what you saw But it made me stay For the first time I didn’t look away [Final Chorus] Where the light hit me, I came undone Not in fear — but in becoming someone You looked at me and I saw it clear Not who I was, but who was near You didn’t change me — you let me breathe Right where the light hit me
