Trapped In Your Shadow

Verse 1

I’m caught inside your spiral, can’t break free

Your hands, your words, they suffocate me

Every day’s a nightmare, walls closing in

The people around me don’t see the sin

They believe your lies, I’m the one they doubt

Trapped in a web I can’t figure out

Your rage escalates, your threats replay

Each breath I take feels like my last day

Pre-Chorus

I scream, I fight, but you’re everywhere

A ghost in my mind, a constant snare

I’m losing pieces of who I was before

And every moment leaves me wanting more

Chorus

I’m trapped in your shadow, can’t find the light

Every corner of my life swallowed by night

You whisper, you threaten, I’m fading inside

I’m screaming for help, but no one’s outside

I won’t give in, I can’t let you win

But the storm you bring rages under my skin

Verse 2

Each day’s a battle, a war with no end

You isolate me from those I depend

They say, “It’s fine, just stay in your place”

But they don’t see the fear on my face

I walk on glass, bleeding unseen

Haunted by shadows where you’ve always been

The harder I fight, the tighter the chain

Every step forward just brings more pain

Pre-Chorus (variation)

I scream, I fight, but I won’t break

Your lies and your anger can’t keep me chained

I’m finding pieces of who I was before

And I know now I deserve much more

Chorus

I’m trapped in your shadow, can’t find the light

Every corner of my life swallowed by night

You whisper, you threaten, I’m fading inside

I’m screaming for help, but no one’s outside

I won’t give in, I can’t let you win

But the storm you bring rages under my skin

Bridge

I have to rise, I have to fight

Even when the darkness feels too tight

Every lie, every scream, every chain you weave

I’ll find a way to finally breathe

Final Chorus

I’m trapped in your shadow, but I’ll break free

Every piece of me will finally see

You can’t control the fire inside

I’ll find my life, I won’t hide

I won’t give in, I won’t let you win

From your shadow, I’ll rise again

Outro

The walls may close, the night may fall

But I’ll stand taller than it all

Your shadow fades as I reclaim my name

No more victim, no more shame
