This courage is mine at last
They're1 a ghost on the mirror
I won't trust (them) with my heart now
Even if hell breaks loose
It's not me, it's you
Love is deserved, obviously
For all those years I gave
All I want is justice
Like me
you were, I thought2
I didn't notice
The betrayal, it's a sign
In another bed
At the wrong time
Look at the truth
With me
And naked
One by one, they drop from my skin
Flakes and flakes3
They fly freely inside
The birds, at last
One by one, they're wiped away from my skin
The traces, traces
Without you, they rise and rise inside
The sounds/voices
At last, at last
This courage is mine at last
They're a ghost on the mirror
I won't trust (them) with my heart now
Even if hell breaks loose
At last the captivity is over
Turns out I viewed love as worship
The regretful, left behind
Keep on doing you now
Like me
you were, I thought
I didn't notice
The betrayal, it's a sign
One by one, they drop from my skin
Flakes and flakes
They fly freely inside
The birds, at last
One by one, they're wiped away from my skin
The traces, traces
Without you, they rise and rise inside
The sounds/voices
At last, at last, at last
1. singular they2. "I thought you were like me"3. This could mean shedding skin, as in revealing one's true self that's underneath their old skin which they're shedding "flake by flake".
