To paraphrase what singer Jonny Pierce said about this song on Spotify’s Encyclopedia commentary, this song is about the marginalization of LGBTQ youth in Russia.
[Verse 1]
A clock ticks on the wall
A knife spins in the dark
He's closing his eyes for the last time
He's going to be her
[Pre-Chorus]
They might hate you, but I love you
And they can go kill themselves
They might hate you, but I love you
And they can go kill themselves
[Chorus]
Let me, let me
See who you are
Let me, let me
See who you are
[Verse 2]
A clock ticks on the wall
She loves another girl
She open her eyes for the first time
She's going to love her
[Pre-Chorus]
They might hate you, but I love you
And they can go kill themselves
They might hate you, but I love you
And they can go kill themselves
[Chorus]
Let me, let me
See who you are
Let me, let me
See who you are
[Bridge]
A clock ticks on the wall
A knife spins in the dark
A clock ticks on the wall
A knife spins in the dark
A clock ticks on the wall
A knife spins in the dark
[Chorus]
Let me, let me
See who you are
Let me, let me
See who you are
[Outro]
See who you are
See who you are
