Lyrics
I hit the stage in silver lightning, boots that shine like city stars,
Every whisper in the shadows says they know just who we are.
I see the faces turning upward, caught between delight and shock,
But I was born to bend the edges, twist the rules and break the clock.
My jacket's cut from constellations, stitched in colours never named,
And the crowd leans in to watch me like a spark they can't contain.
Every step becomes a statement, every glance a little flame,
And I'm dancing with the danger of a world I'll never tame.
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm the centre of attention, and I wear it like a crown,
Let them stare at my reflection as the lights come crashing down.
I'm a creature of the glamour, I'm the shape they can't define --
And I'm happy being who I am, this strange and brilliant shine.
I strut across the velvet chaos, hear the heartbeat of the room,
Feel the pulse of neon thunder as the spotlight starts to bloom.
They don't know what world I came from, but they feel it when I move --
I'm the echo of tomorrow with a rhythm they approve.
(Bridge)
Let them whisper, let them wonder, let them question what they see --
Every shimmer, every gesture is the truth that sets me free.
I'm a prism in the darkness, bending colours through the night,
And the beauty of becoming is my everlasting right.
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm the centre of attention, and I wear it like a crown,
Let them stare at my reflection as the lights come crashing down.
I'm a creature of the glamour, I'm the shape they can't define --
And I'm happy being who I am, this strange and brilliant shine.
So I'll keep on pushing boundaries, keep on painting worlds anew,
In the glitter and the madness, I'll stay boldly, fiercely true.
And the ones who see me shining know the freedom in my stride --
I'm the art they never pictured, but I'm walking it with pride.
