Someone True (Gothic Rock)

I wrote it for a close friend as a way to help her process everything she had been feeling: the pressure to fit in, the quiet moments of self-doubt, and the weight of being told (directly or indirectly) that who you are isn’t quite “right.” It’s about that experience of trying to reshape yourself just to belong… and slowly realizing you were never the problem to begin with. More than anything, it’s about reclaiming that space. Letting go of the version of yourself you built for others, and choosing unapologetically to be who you really are. If you resonate, you’re not alone in feeling this way. And you were never a mistake! 🔔 Subscribe for more dark songs born from personal experience: https://www.youtube.com/@linnyxmaria 📧 E-mail me for a healing song for your story or situation: [email protected] #rock #rockmusic #metal #gothic gothicmusic #AImusic #AIgenerated Lyrics: Verse 1 I watched others fit in effortlessly While I stood there like I shouldn't be Tried to copy how they moved Still I never fit the shape they used Pre-Chorus They said ‘Hold your head, don’t let it show, keep it inside, don’t let them know.” So I built a version safe to see, but locked away what was really me. Chorus You call me out, you call me strange Try to make me rearrange Every piece you don’t relate Like I was a mistake You call me out, you call me strange But now I won’t change If I stand outside your view That just means I’m someone true Someone true Verse 2 Now I’m walking into rooms Where they write unspoken rules Think the same or stay behind No space for a different mind Pre-Chorus They said ‘Hold your head, don’t let it show, keep it inside, don’t let them know.” So I built a version safe to see, but locked away what was really me. Chorus You call me out, you call me strange Try to make me rearrange Every piece you don’t relate Like I was a mistake You call me out, you call me strange But now I won’t change If I stand outside your view That just means I’m someone true Someone true Bridge: I won’t wear what I am not I won’t be what I am taught Every role I tried to play Only pushed myself away Now I choose who I am No more fitting someone’s plan I’m enough just as I am Final chorus: So call me out, call me strange I won’t rearrange I don’t care you don’t relate I was never a mistake So call me out, call me strange I don’t need to change If I stand outside your view That just means I’m someone true Someone true
