about

Made Of is a song that came directly out of the struggles of claiming identity. Whether it's sexuality, gender expression, introvertedness or anything else tied to who we are, and how we identify to the world, there is often internalized shame that comes with it, instilled by history, society, or personal experience. Please know that whoever you are, or choose to be, 'there's nothing to be ashamed of, we're just being what we're made of'

lyrics

The secrets we tell each other, they come out one at a time as they fall
On deaf ears at quiet times alone while we rehearse them in the mirror
Waiting for the time to be right
When we know the strength inside will match the strength we show
But it's hard enough to face the face who's always staring back

But there's nothing to be ashamed of
We're just being what we're made of
And it comes out in the quiet
Between the times we speak
Between the times we think we know we're right
and between the times we're weak

We're constantly checking if what we're about to say Is really what it's worth
Is it our two cents, or is it nonsense all these things that we've unearthed
But they've come from inside us and we can no longer hide this
It's bursting at our seams cause our dreams, they've confided in us


But there's nothing to be ashamed of
We're just being what we're made of
And it comes out in the quiet
Between the times we speak
Between the times we think we know we're right
and between the times we're weak
weak

The drain drips away as I float off into the recesses of my brain
Searching for the last part of me that might still be the same
As I'm thinking of you, and what we might have to go through
I come back down, and I almost drown, and that's what you come home to

But there's nothing to be ashamed of
We're just being what we're made of
And it comes out in the quiet
Between the times we speak
Between the times we think we know we're right
and between the times we're weak
