Locked Inside

Yeah.

Look at the clock,

it’s 3 AM again.

Just me, these four walls,

and a ghost of a friend.

Phone on silent, but nobody’s calling anyway.

Yeah.

I stare at the ceiling,

tracing the cracks Thinking 'bout the past and the things I can't

take back Got a crowd full of people screaming out my name

But when the lights go down,

it all feels the exact same I’m pouring out my soul into

a microphone stand Hoping somebody out there finally understands That you can

have a million eyes staring at your face And still

feel like a stranger in your own damn place I

check my notifications, hoping for a sign Just a "hey,

you good?" to help me clear my mind But it’s just automated

emails and some news alerts Funny how the silence is the thing

that really hurts I build these walls high so nobody can see

the pain Now I’m trapped inside my castle getting soaked by the

rain.

And I’m so lonely,

yeah, it’s eating me alive Just trying to find a reason that

I need to survive Floating in the dark,

looking for a little spark Holding onto pieces of a broken,

heavy heart Yeah, I’m lonely,

scrolling through the memories Living in a room full of my own

enemies Just a whisper in the wind,

waiting to begin Wishing I could find a way to let somebody

in.

I take a drive through the city just to see the lights

Passing couples on the sidewalk,

holding on tight I mirror their expressions,

try to fake a little smile But I haven't felt a real

one in a long,

long while They see the streams,

see the views, think I’m doing great But success don't mean a

thing when you're eating off an empty plate I’m homesick for a

place that I’ve never even known Tired of being surrounded but completely

alone My mind is like a theater playing all my worst mistakes

Counting up the promises that everyone breaks I put my headphones on,

let the melody bleed Maybe music is the only therapy I really

need.

'Cause I’m so lonely,

yeah, it’s eating me alive Just trying to find a reason that

I need to survive Floating in the dark,

looking for a little spark Holding onto pieces of a broken,

heavy heart Yeah, I’m lonely,

scrolling through the memories Living in a room full of my own

enemies Just a whisper in the wind,

waiting to begin Wishing I could find a way to let somebody

in. Just let somebody in.

But the door's locked from the inside.

Yeah.

3:15 AM.

Still awake.

Still alon
