[Intro – 4 bars]
(Whispers / echo FX)
I tried to run…
But I don’t know where “free” is anymore…
---
[Verse 1 – 8 bars]
I wear a smile like it’s stitched to survive
Every breath feel like payin’ the price
You call it love, but it’s chains in disguise
And I’m still sinkin’, with open eyes
Fell in deep, now I’m buried in thought
You touch my skin, but you poison my heart
You light a flame, then you pull it apart
Now I’m stuck between who we are… and who we’re not
---
[Pre-Chorus – 4 bars]
And I don’t cry, but I’m bleedin’ slow
Tryna find peace in a war I don’t know
You kiss my fears with a voice so soft
But your silence scream louder than shots
---
[Chorus – 8 bars]
I’m soul trapped, caught in your hold
Floatin’ through fire, but my hands stay cold
Can’t run, can’t heal, can’t feel what’s real
Love like a cage with a gold-plated seal
I’m soul trapped, callin’ your name
You hear the echo but you won’t take blame
If freedom means losin’ the ghost of you
Then maybe I’ll stay… soul trapped too
---
[Verse 2 – 8 bars]
You paint your lies in the softest light
But shadows dance in the room at night
You break me gently, you curse so sweet
Make me love pain when you press repeat
You hold my past like a loaded gun
Say "it’s my fault" for what you've done
And I still beg for the calm you fake
But your love is a storm I can't escape
---
[Pre-Chorus – 4 bars]
And I don’t cry, but I’m bleedin’ slow
Tryna find peace in a war I don’t know
You kiss my fears with a voice so soft
But your silence scream louder than shots
---
[Chorus – 8 bars]
I’m soul trapped, caught in your hold
Floatin’ through fire, but my hands stay cold
Can’t run, can’t heal, can’t feel what’s real
Love like a cage with a gold-plated seal
I’m soul trapped, callin’ your name
You hear the echo but you won’t take blame
If freedom means losin’ the ghost of you
Then maybe I’ll stay… soul trapped too
---
[Bridge – 4 bars]
Tie me in truth, if you ever care
But don't kiss me again just to leave me there
I’m chained to a dream I can’t wake from
A prisoner in love with the pain I run from
---
[Final Chorus – 8 bars]
I’m soul trapped, caught in your hold
Floatin’ through fire, but my hands stay cold
Can’t run, can’t heal, can’t feel what’s real
Love like a cage with a gold-plated seal
I’m soul trapped, callin’ your name
You hear the echo but you won’t take blame
If freedom means losin’ the ghost of you
Then maybe I’ll stay… soul trapped too
---
[Outro – Soft/Fading]
Maybe I’ll stay…
Maybe I’ll stay…
Soul trapped with you.
