Limelight

V1:

I'm a canvas in the side room

The baseline beat of a melody

Where hidden beauty blooms

Dancing in the shadows

Nerves take over on the main stage

Fears ignite under bright lights

Twilight's embrace feels more profound

Chorus:

Never been a fan of a grand display

Content to let others lead the way

They can have the spotlight's thrill

Prefer the shadows where it's still

Forever in a quiet phase

Always get a bitter taste

Standing in the limelight

V2:

Spent younger days

In clinical landscapes

In sterile corridors

Stood prying eyes galore

Lost in a sea of faces

A quiet soul, seeking to escape it

Bridge:

Unseen but alive, I find my way

The quiet sanctuary is where I stay

Thriving in my own scene

Building out my dreams
