Song: "Locked Within" by Elysium

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
In a room with no windows, no sky to see,
Where the walls are the shadows that won't set me free.
Chains on my wrists, but they’re colder inside,
I scream for an answer, but there’s nowhere to hide.

Footsteps above, they weigh on my chest,
The flicker of light that won't let me rest.
A face in the mirror, eyes that don't know,
The truth of the story that’s waiting to show.

[Pre-Chorus]
And I wonder who keeps me here in this place,
What kind of heart could erase my face?
But the answer’s been there, beneath every cry,
A secret I hold, that I can’t deny.

[Chorus]
I’m the one who locked the door,
Threw away the key, to the life before.
I'm the hands that tie, the voice that lies,
In this basement of my own design.
I’m the captor and the caged,
The author of the script that keeps me enraged.
And the torture’s just the truth I try to hide,
From the world outside, from the world outside.

[Verse 2]
The walls start to crumble, but only in dreams,
Where the sun touches places it’s never been.
But when morning arrives, the bars are still there,
A prison I've built with every despair.

No faces to blame, no one to accuse,
But the one in the mirror with nothing to lose.
The torture is comfort, a friend I've known,
It’s the only place where I’m truly alone.

[Pre-Chorus]
And I wonder who could be so cruel,
To drown out the world with a heart so full.
But the answer’s been clear with every tear,
I’m the one I fear, I’m the one I fear.

[Chorus]
I’m the one who locked the door,
Threw away the key, to the life before.
I'm the hands that tie, the voice that lies,
In this basement of my own design.
I’m the captor and the caged,
The author of the script that keeps me enraged.
And the torture’s just the truth I try to hide,
From the world outside, from the world outside.

[Bridge]
Every bruise, every scar, every tear I’ve shed,
Is a story I’ve written, in the darkness I’ve fed.
And the key to escape is buried so deep,
In the heart that I’ve silenced, in the secrets I keep.

But maybe one day, I’ll find the light,
Break through the chains, step into the night.
And the girl in the mirror will finally see,
She’s always been the one to set herself free.

[Chorus (Outro)]
I’m the one who locked the door,
Threw away the key, to the life before.
But the hands that tie can also unbind,
In this basement, I’ll find the strength to climb.
I’m the captor and the caged,
But the script can change, the page can be saved.
And the torture’s just the past I’ll leave behind,
For the world outside, for the world outside.
