In the daylight, I wear my calm
Small talk smiles and a steady charm
Coffee hands and a checklist life
No one sees the war I hide
City moves, and I move too
Like I'm okay, like I never knew
But every step is a practiced role
Behind the glass, I've lost control
Daylight lies, say I'm fine
But the moon knows what I try to hide
When the sun dips low, I come alive
In the quiet truth, I survive
Neon signs spell out my name
Reflections blink but feel the same
Shadows stretch where I belong
I find my voice when the world is gone
The night don't judge, it lets me feel
No mask, no script, just something real
I talk to stars that don't reply
But somehow still, they justify
Daylight lies, say I'm fine
But the moon knows what I try to hide
When the sun dips low, I come alive
In the quiet truth, I survive
So let the day keep its pretty face
I'll find my peace in empty space
Night is mine, and in that sky
I stop pretending, I just cry
