[Intro – whispered, tense]
Nowhere left to run…
Nowhere left to hide…
⸻
[Verse 1 – rap/sing, dark imagery]
Every shadow’s got a face I know,
Every secret’s just a loaded ghost.
Walls are shaking, I can’t breathe,
Even silence feels like it’s hunting me.
Friends turned strangers, strangers turned foes,
Can’t trust nobody when the truth don’t show.
Built these walls just to keep me safe,
But they crumble down with the lies they made.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – melodic build]
And I can’t escape (escape),
These chains I can’t replace.
Every step I take,
Feels like a grave.
⸻
[Chorus – big, emotional hook]
There’s no sanctuary for me,
Every lock and key just bleeds.
I was searching for a way out,
But this house is just a cage now.
No sanctuary, can’t break free,
Even angels turn on me.
I was searching for a way out,
But there’s no safe house.
⸻
[Verse 2 – heavier, paranoia vibe]
Every knock on the door feels wrong,
Every night drags out too long.
Eyes in the dark, whispers in the air,
I’m haunted by ghosts that were never there.
Built a kingdom made of stone,
But the crown still cuts to the bone.
Trust is dead, and faith’s long gone,
So I bleed these words in another song.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – rising, layered vocals]
And I can’t escape (escape),
These chains I can’t replace.
Every step I take,
Feels like a grave.
⸻
[Chorus – repeat, bigger, layered harmonies]
There’s no sanctuary for me,
Every lock and key just bleeds.
I was searching for a way out,
But this house is just a cage now.
No sanctuary, can’t break free,
Even angels turn on me.
I was searching for a way out,
But there’s no safe house.
⸻
[Bridge – screamed/rap breakdown]
Tear these walls apart!
Rip this cage in half!
I was never safe inside—
It was a trap from the start!
(Whispers) Nowhere left to run…
(Screams) NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE!
⸻
[Final Chorus – soaring + screams layered]
There’s no sanctuary for me,
Every lock and key just bleeds.
I was searching for a way out,
But this house is just a cage now.
No sanctuary, can’t break free,
Even angels turn on me.
I was searching for a way out,
But there’s no safe house…
⸻
[Outro – soft, fading piano/heartbeat]
No safe house…
No way out.
