The boxed up room, a prison in my chest
No windows to the east, no sunsets to the west
Walls whisper secrets, my name in their breath
A tomb for the living, a prelude to death
The boxed up room within my soul
A space so tight, it swallows me whole
No light to crack, no air to control
The boxed up room within my soul
Fears play chess, I’m the pawn in their scheme
Knight takes my sanity, king steals my dream
The echoes keep bouncing, they mock my esteem
In the boxed up room, nothing’s as it seems
No strength to fight, no will to climb
A metronome ticking, it warps my time
Trapped forever, or so it feels
The boxed up room, where nothing heals
The boxed up room within my soul
A space so tight, it swallows me whole
No light to crack, no air to control
The boxed up room within my soul
The walls, they press, they take, they claim
A ghost in my skin, I’ve forgotten my name
No door to escape, no window to frame
The boxed up room burns cold as flame
