Verse 1
Woke up with a war in my head
Smile on my face, but I’m barely in bed
They say “just breathe”, yeah I tried that before
But my mind keeps pacing, can’t find the door
Pre-Chorus
I’m screaming in silence, nobody hears
I’m drowning in thoughts I’ve carried for years
Chorus (Hook)
I’m trapped in my mind, behind locked doors
Fighting myself in endless wars
I look so fine, but I’m barely alive
Still breathing, still stuck, just trying to survive
Verse 2
Good days feel fake, bad days feel true
My thoughts get loud when the room is mute
Pills on the table, hope in delay
They promise tomorrow, but it’s always “someday”
Pre-Chorus
They say I’m strong, but I’m tired of being brave
I don’t wanna be saved, I just wanna feel okay
Chorus (Hook)
I’m trapped in my mind, behind locked doors
Fighting myself in endless wars
I look so fine, but I’m barely alive
Still breathing, still stuck, just trying to survive
Bridge
If you could see through my eyes tonight
You’d see the dark, not just the light
I’m not broken, I’m just in pain
Trying to live inside this brain
Final Chorus (bigger, emotional)
I’m trapped in my mind, can’t run away
Every single night feels the same
If I make it out, I’ll tell my side
Till then I’m fighting just to stay alive
