**Verse 1**
Walls are closing in, shadows in the light,
A world outside my window feels too far to fight,
Footsteps echo softly, but they’re so far away,
I’m trapped in this silence, where I wish I could stay.
**Chorus**
Behind closed doors, where my fears reside,
A heart that wants to wander, but it’s scared to leave inside,
Dreaming of the sunlight, yearning for the skies,
But here in my fortress, I can only close my eyes.
**Verse 2**
The ticking of the clock is a haunting lullaby,
Every second stretches, as the moments pass me by,
Memories of laughter, the warmth of human touch,
Now just distant echoes, I miss them all so much.
**Chorus**
Behind closed doors, where my fears reside,
A heart that wants to wander, but it’s scared to leave inside,
Dreaming of the sunlight, yearning for the skies,
But here in my fortress, I can only close my eyes.
**Bridge**
I hear the world outside, a symphony of life,
But the melody of panic cuts like a knife,
I gather up my courage, take a breath and sigh,
Maybe one day soon, I’ll learn to spread my wings and fly.
**Chorus**
Behind closed doors, where my fears reside,
A heart that wants to wander, but it’s scared to leave inside,
Dreaming of the sunlight, yearning for the skies,
But here in my fortress, I can only close my eyes.
**Outro**
So I’ll fight this battle, one step at a time,
With hope as my guide and a rhythm in my rhyme,
Beyond these walls, a world waiting for me,
I’ll break through the shadows, and set my spirit free.
