Lyrics
Mirror Signal
Signal, signal, signal, signal Signal, signal, signal, signal I can see me Signal, signal I can see me I learned to stand where the light was wrong Counting every crack like it proved me small Every voice in the room had a sharper name So I wore their words like a second skin But under the noise There was one clean tone Buried in static Still calling me home I am not the broken glass I am not the shadow cast I am the signal coming through Clearer than the lies I knew Look at me now, look at me now I don't disappear somehow I am not the damage done I am the mirror facing sun I can see me I can breathe I can see me I used to ask every stranger's eyes Tell me if I get to be alive But borrowed light never stayed for long So, I built my own inside the dark And under the noise There was one clean tone Not asking permission Just calling me home I am not the broken glass I am not the shadow cast I am the signal coming through Clearer than the lies I knew Look at me now, look at me now I don't disappear somehow I am not the damage done I am the mirror facing sun If I break, I reflect If I fall, I connect Every piece still catches fire Every scar still carries wire I can see me I can see me I am not the broken glass I am not the shadow cast I am the signal coming through Clearer than the lies I knew Look at me now, look at me now I don't disappear somehow I am not the damage done I am the mirror facing sun I can see me Signal, signal Signal, signal Signal I can see me
