[Intro]
You’re the cell, you’re the cage
You’re my fight or flight
You’re the hole in my head
Where a child died
You’re the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You’re the ball, you’re the chain
You’re my sentence for life

[Verse 1]
I'd tell the story but no one believes me
You keep denying it so no one sees me
You always lie just to keep control
Because the truth's uncomfortable

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re the memory that’s filling my prescriptions
You’re the shame that always shuts me up
I need to numb and you’re the cause of the addiction
You’re the scar that taught me not to love

[Chorus]
You’re the cell, you’re the cage
You’re my fight or flight
You’re the hole in my head
Where a child died
You’re the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You’re the ball, you’re the chain
You’re my sentence for life
[Post-Chorus]
You’re my, you’re my, you’re my
Sentence for life
You’re my, you’re my, you’re my
Sentence for life

[Verse 2]
I would expose you but you always play the victim
You'd rather hide than pay the price for your decisions
So I will live with the consequence
Until they bury the evidence

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the insomnia at 4AM when I can't breathe
You're every trigger that I talk about in therapy
You're in my brain, you're the imbalance in my chemistry
Taught me I'm never safe, not even with my family
(So if I die, know I was murdered by my pedigree)

[Chorus]
You’re the cell, you’re the cage
You’re my fight or flight
You’re the hole in my head
Where a child died
You’re the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You’re the ball, you’re the chain
You’re my sentence for life
[Post-Chorus]
You’re my, you’re my, you’re my
Sentence for life
You’re my, you’re my, you’re my
Sentence for life

[Bridge]
I'd tell the story but no one believes me
You keep denying it so no one will see me
You've always lied just to keep control
Because the truth's uncomfortable

[Chorus]
You’re the cell, you’re the cage
You’re my fight or flight (flight)
You’re the hole in my head
Where a child died (died)
You’re the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You’re the ball, you’re the chain
You’re my sentence for life

[Outro]
You're my sentence for life
