When Nobody Is Looking (Full Mix)
Album: My Heart Is A Ballroom
Lyrics
VERSE 1
I don't wanna go there, it's too crowded
I don't wanna be distracted
I don't wanna blow up my mind
Don't wanna show up this time
VERSE 2
I don't wanna be inspired by it
Nor just impressed or fascinated
Oh, I don't wanna face a new goal, or fill a new role
Just wanna face my own soul
PRE CHORUS 1
I close the door, explore the dark
In the basement of my heart
CHORUS 1
When nobody is looking
Who am I, who can I be
When I don't have to fit in
Then what fits naturally
Nobody is looking
Who's the one I dare to be
When I am in my own skin
What does feel right to me, right to me
Is this my shadow? I'll embrace it, it's fine!
I'll walk through my own darkness into my own light
VERSE 3
I'm not inclined to pass a stress test
Nor to being defined by my successes
Oh, I don't wanna measure my growth, but I treasure the bold
"Me" that is facing my soul
PRE CHORUS 2
I find my worth right in the dark
In the basement of my heart
CHORUS 2
When nobody is looking
Who am I, who can I be
When I don't have to fit in
Then what fits naturally
Nobody is looking
Who's the one I dare to be
When I am in my own skin
What does feel right to me, right to me
Is this my shadow? I'll embrace it, it's fine!
I'll walk through my own darkness into my own light
B-CHORUS
Into my own light
Into my own light
Own light
Own light
CHORUS 3
When nobody is looking
Who am I, who can I be
When I don't have to fit in
Then what fits naturally
Nobody is looking
Answers coming easily
Oh, I am in my own skin
And it feels right to me, right to me
This is my shadow, I embrace it, it's fine
I walk through my own darkness into my own light
