Verse 1
Don’t ask me who is angry
Don’t ask me who is hurt
Don’t hand me some riddle
Like that’s gonna do the work
I feel the heat rise in my chest
Jaw tight, shoulders pulled
If this is some clever trick
Man, I’m not that easily fooled
Pre-Chorus
You say “Who is there?”
Like it’s some magic key
But all I notice right now
Is sensation happening in me
Chorus (ear-catching, grounded)
Don’t ask me who
Ask what is here
Pulse in the ribs
Pressure and fear
Thoughts come loud
Stories appear
But nothing extra
Nothing severe
Just this… just this… just this right here
Verse 2
There’s a voice that says “I”
But it sounds like any thought
It shows up, does its talking
Then fades like it was not
There’s tightening in the belly
There’s an image of a face
There’s commentary rolling
Trying hard to find a place
Pre-Chorus
No ghost behind the curtain
No captain at the wheel
Just movement, just sensation
Just raw and changing feel
Chorus
Don’t ask me who
Ask what is here
Buzz in the skull
Tension and heat
Memories flicker
Predictions compete
But nothing hiding
Under the seat
Just this… just this… just this heartbeat
Bridge (calmer, clearer)
Irritation rises
Okay, let it rise
No need to solve it
No need to be wise
The word “me” echoes
Like any sound
Appears in the air
Then falls to the ground
No hunter required
No self to remove
Just seeing what’s moving
Without needing proof
Final Chorus (strong, freeing)
Don’t ask me who
Ask what is real
Breath in the lungs
Weight in the heel
Story says “mine”
Story can shout
But when I look close
There’s nothing outside
Just this…
Just this…
Just this unfolding now.
