Imprisoned in four walls, reminded of my deeds
My guilt is killing me inside, my consciousness is numbed
The gaze of righteousness hits hard, you don't know how it feels
Can I ever feel relief
Belittled and betrayed, I want to hit the wall
I've soaked up every villainy and every little dumb remark
Couldn't hold me back from eating it all up
And I wait until I implode
I can never run, I can never hide
Imprisoned here with my selfish empathy
Imprisoned in my mind, it's tearing up my soul
Painful ambiguous demands deprive me of my last resort
Dancing my last dance with fate before abandoning all hope
Let me sink into the void
Inscrutable the ways, I'm searching for the light
The hand that's guided me all life has left me in this mess
Prayers weren't enough, what else could I have done
Can you help me now
I can never run, I can never hide
Imprisoned here with my selfish empathy
Can't break my chains of hate, compassion is just bait
I have to find a way before it's too late
I can never run, I can never hide
This is my life now, cannot swallow my pride
I can never run, I can never hide
I've chosen the path, let my two worlds collide
I will never run, I will never hide
The sky's crashing down but I will remain
This prison is my life, lessons have been learned
These locks were shattered by the past, when the answer was unknown
Then I realised redemption is the key
So I'll be free
