The Door I’ve Forgotten [Unchained]

# UNCHAINED # [Intro] [Cold mechanical drones] [Broken radio pulses] [Distant heartbeat] I keep asking… “What if none of this was ever mine?” … No answer. [Verse 1] Every mirror wears another face. Every morning starts inside the same cage. My head is louder than the city’s noise, A thousand echoes dressed as different voices. Sometimes it feels Like the walls already know my name. Like every step I take Has already been explained. But maybe… Maybe it’s fear wearing another mask. [Pre-Chorus] If this world keeps pulling strings, I’ll cut the ones inside of me first. If every lie sounds comfortable… Then truth must hurt. [Chorus] I won’t become another chain. I won’t trade my soul for someone else’s game. If this darkness knows my name— Then let it watch me walk away. I’m done surviving. I finally want to live. [Verse 2] My thoughts scatter like birds in a storm, Looking for somewhere safe to land. I kept searching for enemies outside While fighting wars inside my own hands. The loudest prison Was never made of steel. It was every voice That told me I wasn’t real. [Bridge] [Music nearly disappears] What if freedom Wasn’t escaping the world… What if freedom Was finally meeting myself? [Single piano note] No more masks. No more permission. No more waiting. [Final Chorus] I won’t become another chain. Not for fear. Not for power. Not for comfort. I’ll carry every scar Until it turns into light. Let tomorrow judge me. Today… I finally start living. [Outro] [Mechanical textures slowly transform into warm acoustic guitar, cello and distant choir] The cage was never the ending. It was the door… I had forgotten I could open.
