Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hands tied tight in the dark

Rope bite, no chance to bark

Cold floor, stone on my skin

Every drip sounds like a sin

I hear boots in the hall

Or maybe just my heart fall

One small scrape in the black

And I flinch with my back to the crack

[Pre-Chorus]

Count the breaths, count the cracks

Count the lies in my tracks

If they come, I’ll never know

If they leave, I’m still below

[Chorus]

I’m a prisoner of my mind

(prisoner of my mind)

Every shadow leaves me blind

(prisoner of my mind)

Chains are shaking all around

But the cage was never found

I’m a prisoner of my mind

(prisoner of my mind)

[Verse 2]

They could drag me through the door

Throw my name across the floor

But the fear in my head

Built these walls where I bled

Every silence takes a face

Every corner has a trace

I was waiting for a sign

Now I see it’s all inside

[Pre-Chorus]

Count the breaths, count the cracks

Count the lies in my tracks

If they come, I’ll never know

If they leave, I’m still below

[Chorus]

I’m a prisoner of my mind

(prisoner of my mind)

Every shadow leaves me blind

(prisoner of my mind)

Chains are shaking all around

But the cage was never found

I’m a prisoner of my mind

(prisoner of my mind)

[Bridge]

No keys in the iron door

No jailer standing guard anymore

It was me in the dark, all along

Breaking myself to keep me gone

[Break]

[Clean Guitar]

I named the fear

I named the lock

I named the cell

I named the shock

[Final Chorus]

I’m a prisoner of my mind

(prisoner of my mind)

Every shadow leaves me blind

(prisoner of my mind)

Chains are shaking all around

But the cage was never found

I’m a prisoner of my mind

(prisoner of my mind)
