(Verse 1)

I’m staring at the ceiling, silence feels so loud

Every word they’ve thrown at me still circles like a cloud

The mirror shows a stranger, someone I don’t know

Every smile I fake just hides the ache below

(Pre-Chorus)

The walls are closing in, my thoughts won’t let me breathe

I’m screaming in the dark, but no one hears me leave

(Chorus)

I’m alone in the echo of my own mistakes

Every scar on my heart’s another name they gave

They don’t see me, they just paint me in their rage

I’m a prisoner of my mind, locked in this cage

(Verse 2)

Their whispers turn to thunder, I can’t drown them out

Every word feels heavier, it’s breaking me somehow

I reach for hands that vanish like smoke inside the rain

This loneliness is endless, it’s tattooed on my veins

(Pre-Chorus)

The walls are closing in, my thoughts won’t let me breathe

I’m screaming in the dark, but no one hears me leave

(Chorus)

I’m alone in the echo of my own mistakes

Every scar on my heart’s another name they gave

They don’t see me, they just paint me in their rage

I’m a prisoner of my mind, locked in this cage

(Bridge)

If I break these chains, will they even know my name?

Or am I just a shadow fading out of frame?

I’m tired of the silence, but my voice is gone

And in my head’s a crowd telling me I don’t belong

(Final Chorus)

I’m alone in the echo of my own mistakes

Every scar on my heart’s another name they gave

They don’t see me, they just paint me in their rage

I’m a prisoner of my mind, locked in this cage

(Outro)

I’m trapped here, can’t find the key

Alone with the hate and the ghost of me
