Cage With No Key
Embracing Shadows: The Struggle Within the Cage With No Key
Lyrics
I never feel as small than in the middle of the night
I experience a profound sense of insignificance, especially during the nighttime.
The world around me falls apart
The world seems to crumble around me despite my efforts.
No matter how hard I try
Regardless of my efforts, I cannot overcome the challenges.
I can never win the fight
I consistently lose battles and struggle to emerge victorious.
I'll stare up at the ceiling and pretend I'll be just fine
In difficult times, I pretend to be okay, looking up at the ceiling.
But I'll get overwhelmed just like it happens every time
Despite pretending, I often get overwhelmed, repeating the pattern.
I feel the flood at 3am
At 3 am, I experience a flood of emotions.
Begging it to stop
I plead for the emotional flood to cease.
But it's never left my head
The emotional turmoil persists in my thoughts.
Isolated, wide awake
I feel isolated and wide awake, unable to find solace.
A million times I've fought to sleep
I've struggled countless times to fall asleep.
But even when it works
Even when I manage to sleep, there's uncertainty about waking up.
I may not wake again
Sleeping might lead to not waking up again.
I'm desperate to be found
I desperately seek acknowledgment and connection.
Please understand how scared I'm feeling now
I want others to understand the intense fear I am currently experiencing.
Please don't leave me alone
I implore not to be left alone in this challenging situation.
There's noise that kills even when it makes no sound
There's a disturbing noise that has a detrimental impact despite being silent.
It's like my days blend together like blood in the ocean
My days blend together, creating a chaotic and overwhelming experience.
My nights that don't end till like 6 in the morning
Nights seem endless, often lasting until early morning.
Sometimes I can't cry or feel an emotion
Sometimes, I struggle to express emotions or shed tears.
And other times it's like my heart has broke open
Other times, my emotions overflow, making me feel vulnerable.
And happy is a memory
Happiness feels like a distant memory that is hard to believe in.
That I can't seem to believe
I find it challenging to trust or accept the concept of happiness.
What's wrong with me
I question myself, wondering what is wrong with me.
I try not to drown
I make an effort not to succumb to overwhelming emotions.
Shut everyone out
To protect myself, I isolate and shut out everyone around me.
I wanna be free
I yearn for freedom from the emotional struggles.
Free me
I plead for liberation and release from the emotional burden.
A cage with no key
I feel trapped, unable to find a solution or escape.
I feel the flood at 3am
Again, at 3 am, the emotional flood intensifies.
Begging it to stop
I desperately want the emotional turmoil to end.
But it's never left my head
Despite efforts, the emotional struggle persists in my thoughts.
I'll scream so hard to stay alive
I will scream fiercely to stay alive despite the challenges.
But if I don't rise with the light
If I don't overcome the darkness, there's a risk of not surviving until morning.
Please know how hard I tried
I want others to acknowledge the immense effort I put into facing these challenges.
