I'm locked inside four walls of stone
Extremely trapped, entirely alone
Who in this maze can I trust?
Inside me there's this battleground
Where all my warriors are going down
Am I about to self-destruct?

I'm in a world with no roads
Stuck within a life with no goals
My body has lost my soul
It's drowning in some kind of hellhole

I'm searching for an exit
A reason to why I exist
Why can't love be my savior?
Unable to accept what I see
Can't handle the reality
When have I become my own prisoner?

I've become sick of myself
Tired of always hiding in my shell
I'm in need of help
And wanting the life of someone else

I'm done with faking the story of my life
Won't lie my way through no more
I shouldn't separate myself from the hive
But I'm rotten to the core

I'm a bad influence to the world
A spoiled, a selfish, a scared, a girl
Who's always pulling things up her sleeve
I want a life with diamond gloss
And not full of loss because
How long til death comes for me?

Open the gates of bliss
Grant me a life of happiness
I want nothing more than this
A world which isn't like an empty blank canvas..
