Green Room Fight
Track 5 of Double Exposure
[ Lyrics ]
You said I stole your light. I said you changed. Backstage buzz, the speakers hum your name, security glance — they know you’re the main event again. I’m tucked in the corner, half in shadow, half in glare, still wearing the jacket we picked out together last year. You smile like you mean it, but it don’t reach your eyes, ask how I’ve been — like silence isn’t a language we wrote in lines. One spark away from screaming, one breath from breaking down, we built this world from nothing — now it feels like we’re the ones you drowned. You lean in close, pretend it’s all OK, but the air is thick with everything we deleted from the DMs last May. No, it’s not about the credit — It’s who the world sees when they look into your sky. You said I stole your light — like I planned it, like I wanted your crown. I said you changed — not the person, just the way you look down. From that pedestal, baby, did you forget we were clones? Two girls in a casting call — now one’s alone in the zone. We spilled into the hallway, voices cracked through the noise, 'You used to fight for us!' — 'And you ghosted my voice!' That brand deal you killed for — I wrote the concept in ink, now it’s tagged as your vision — with a filter, no thanks. You say I’m bitter — but you won’t say I’m wrong, just pull out your phone like silence is where we belong. The industry loves a villain — picks one per scene, tonight, it’s me — tomorrow, it’ll be you, I guarantee. I still wear your favorite lipstick when I’m feeling brave, still hum the tune we demoed that night we slept in the frame. But creation got costly — pride built a wall, and now we’re just two reflections who don’t recognize the fall. You said I stole your light — like I didn’t stand beside it all year. I said you changed — traded trust for a front-row cheer. We were two in the flash — now you’re framed in the glow, and I’m the shadow they whisper was part of the show. It was never about fame. It was about not being the only face that looked like mine in the game. You got scared. I got quiet. And the system? It played us. Told us there’s room for one — so we fought like we hated us. You said I stole your light... I said you changed... But the truth? We both let it die. ... Yeah.
