To Be Seen - Mellow Vibes Radio
Streetlights tracing patterns across the bedroom wall
Your keys dropped on the table, I hear it quite call
I'm fresh out of the shower, hair still dripping down
You look at me so gently like I don't have to guard myself around
My heart one kind of like armor, polished sharp and clean
But you don't need the surface, you see what's underneath
With you I'm safe to be seen
No filter, no disguise
You read me in the in-between
The truth behind my eyes
No rush to be perfect, no pressure to perform
If love is just acceptance, then this is where I'm born
We're sitting on the kitchen floor, sharing takeout from the box
Talking about our younger selves and all our stubborn thoughts
You tell me I'm still growing, I don't have to have it planned
You like that I'm independent, but still reach for your hand
There's freedom in your presence and how you let me speak
And you don't try to outshine me, you let my spirit breathe
With you I'm safe to be seen
No filter, no disguise
You read me in the in-between
The truth behind my eyes
No rush to be perfect, no pressure to perform
If love is just acceptance, then this is where I'm born
Maybe it's not dramatic, maybe it's just real
Two people staying honest about the way they feel
No stones out on the sidewalk, no breaking down the door
Just steady conversation wanting a little more
With you I'm safe to be seen
No filter, no disguise
You read me in the in-between
The truth behind my eyes
No rush to be perfect, no pressure to perform
If love is just acceptance, then this is where I'm born
Safe to be seen
Right here with you
