liminal · unsettled · becoming
Standing in the gap between who you were and who you're becoming — neither self fully real, both pulling at once.
Neither Self Yet True
Verse 1
We've been standing in the corridor
Between two rooms we barely recognize
One door behind us, warped and familiar
One ahead, still blurred against the light of our own eyes
We wear the names that no longer fit quite right
Like a coat cut for a smaller grief
The old self watches from across the distance
Whispering things we've almost stopped believing
Chorus
We are the gap, we are the in-between
Not what we were, not yet what we will mean
The floor beneath us shifts but does not break
We are the question and the choice we have to make
Stretched between the then and the not-yet
Carrying both, and neither, with no net
Verse 2
We've misplaced the scripts we used to follow
The answers that once fit so clean and well
Now we speak in half-formed new convictions
And stumble through the stories we can't tell
Something is assembling in the waiting
Something slow, unnamed, without a face
We recognize it when we stop performing
In the unguarded, unannounced small space
Bridge
Let the gap be wide
Let it ask what we cannot answer
Let the old self rest
Let the new one come without a name
We don't need the map
We just need to keep on moving
Through the strange and necessary
Terrain of becoming
Outro
We are still here
Still crossing
Still becoming
Still crossing
