Intro (whispered / distant, filtered)
Echoes in the hollow
Breathing through the stone
I was never meant to stay here
But I forgot I could go
Verse 1 (low, restrained)
Walls made of silence, closing in slow
Shadows been speaking in a voice I don’t know
Hands on the glass but it won’t let me through
A life in reflection that I thought was true
Heavy the air, like a weight on my chest
Every direction just leads to the rest
Of all the illusions I carried as real
Locked in a world I was taught not to feel
Pre-Chorus (rising tension)
But something is shifting beneath my skin
A crack in the dark, something pulling me in
I hear it calling through the divide
A distant rhythm I can’t deny
Chorus (ethereal, expansive)
I feel it breaking
The cage is shaking
Light through the fracture in me
I am awakening
No more forsaken
This is the moment I’m free
Drop (instrumental focus + vocal chops)
Free… free… breaking… breaking…
I… am… awake…
Verse 2 (more movement, less restrained)
Pieces are falling like ash in the air
Truth in the ruins, I see it laid bare
Every belief that was keeping me bound
Turns into dust as it falls to the ground
Breath in my lungs like I’m living again
Tearing the veil that was hiding the end
Nothing to hold me, nothing to cage
I am the fire that’s burning the frame
Pre-Chorus 2 (bigger lift)
Now I am stepping beyond what I knew
Crossing the line into something more true
No longer lost in the echoing void
I am the signal that can’t be destroyed
Chorus (full energy)
I feel it breaking
The cage is shaking
Light through the fracture in me
I am awakening
No more forsaken
This is the moment I’m free
Bridge (ambient, almost spoken / choral)
There was never a prison
Only the shape of my fear
Now the walls are dissolving
And the path is clear
I am more than the silence
More than the shadow I wore
As the cage disappears
I become something more
Final Chorus (transcendent, layered vocals)
I feel it breaking
The cage is fading
Nothing can hold me beneath
I am the open
I am the motion
I am the space in between
Outro (minimal, fading)
No walls… no chains…
Only the sound of escape…
Only the sound of me…
