It's funny what you hear
When everything is quiet
No calls,
no people
No noise,
just me
Midnight on the bedroom floor
Makeup fading from the night
Everybody thinks I'm good
I got good at looking right
Kept the hard shit out of
frame
Kept the questions to myself
Learned to smile through every room
Then come home to someone else
I was waiting on a sign
Waiting on somebody's yes
Like my life was theirs to
give Like I had to earn
my rest But flowers open in
the dark
Before the morning even knows Maybe
I was growing too
Even when it never showed
Rose after midnight Blooming when nobody
sees
Rose after midnight Finally coming back
to me
I don't need the room to
clap I don't need permission now
Rose after midnight Look at me,
I'm blooming now
After midnight
Still here, still mine After midnight
I survived some quiet wars
Never made the evening news
Stayed too long in certain rooms
Called it love when I was
bruised Made myself a little small
Just to keep somebody near
Swallowed words I should've said Made
a home inside my fear But
I ain't mad at that girl
now She was doing what she
knew
Every version got me here
Every scar became a root
Flowers open in the dark
They don't ask who understands Maybe
healing started when I stopped leaving
my own hands Rose after midnight
Blooming when nobody sees
Rose after midnight Finally coming back
to me
I don't need the room to
clap I don't need permission now
Rose after midnight Look at me,
I'm blooming now I thought becoming
would feel louder Thought there'd be
some grand reveal But tonight it's
just me breathing
And for once,
that shit feels real No announcement,
no applause No explaining where I've
been Just a woman in the
mirror Letting herself
begin again Rose after midnight Blooming
when nobody sees Rose after midnight
Every petal belongs to me I
don't need the room to clap
I don't need permission now Rose
after midnight Here I am,
I'm blooming now
Rose after midnight Soft enough to
still be strong
Rose after midnight I was growing
all along Maybe morning wasn't coming
to save me
Maybe I just needed enough dark
To finally see myself
There you are
