Lyrics:

[VERSE 1]
Hundred dollar bill on the floor
At the last checkout by the door
The lady ahead of me doesn't know it's gone
Nobody saw it land
Nobody saw me pick it up
And I've got it in my hand
Nobody'd know if I kept it
I stood there longer than I can admit
Before I tapped her on the back

[PRE-CHORUS]
It was never the money
Or wanting someone to see
It's just... tonight
I didn't want to hide from me

[CHORUS]
Who are you when no one's watching
Who are you when no one knows
Are you the same when you're alone
As the you you choose to show
It's easy being good when people see you
Harder when you're on your own
Who are you when no one's watching
That's the you that you take home

[SPOKEN WORD]
Dear Diary...
I laughed at the joke today...
The one about the new kid...
I knew it was mean...
I laughed anyway.
Because everyone else did.
And not laughing?
That would've been a whole thing...
I didn't want to be a whole thing.
I told myself I'd finally start that assignment.
Said "tomorrow" again.
I've said it so many times...
the word doesn't even mean anything anymore.
I typed something in the comments last night...
Posted as "anon"...
Nothing I'd ever say with my face attached.
I told myself it doesn't count because no one knows it's me.
But I know it was me.
That's the part I keep forgetting.
The part that matters.
You can fool everyone...
You can build a whole version of yourself online...
that's nothing like the one sitting in your room at night...
Get so good at faking...
you lose track of what's real.
But in the middle of the night...
when I can't sleep...
it matters.
...
And here's what I'm starting to figure out...
It's not the big moments...
It's the dumb little stuff no one sees...
Putting the cart back when it's raining...
when you can just pop a wheelie on the curb...
Telling your friend that great idea was actually hers...
Scrolling instead of taking a screenshot of someone's bad moment...
just because you could.
There's no applause for any of that.
But I don't know...
something feels different after.
Not proud exactly.
Just... cleaner.
Not because anyone saw.
Just because I did.

[VERSE 2]
There was another joke today
I didn't laugh this time
It got weird for a second
Just a second
But the second felt like mine
I'm not saying I've got this
I mess up all the time
But I'm watching myself closer now
In the moments no one's counting

[PRE-CHORUS]
It's not about being perfect
I gave up on that
It's about the promise I make myself
And whether I come back

[FINAL CHORUS]
Who are you when no one's watching
Who are you when no one knows
Are you the same when you're alone
As the you you choose to show
It's easy being good when people see you
Harder when you're on your own
Who are you when no one's watching
That's the you... you take home

[OUTRO]
That's the you you take home...
