Lyrics
[Intro]
*gentle piano chords* *soft acoustic guitar picking*
[Verse 1]
I'm shackled to this couch, can't seem to break free
Dreams and plans surround me, but they fade so easily
Paralysis takes over, I'm trapped in my own mind
Watching the days slip by, leaving everything behind
*whispering vocals with light background harmonies*
[Chorus]
OH, I FEEL LIKE I'M LETTING YOU DOWN!
THIS COUCH IS MY PRISON, I'M LOST IN THIS TOWN
YEARNING TO BREAK FREE, TO DO WHAT I MUST
BUT I'M STUCK IN THIS CYCLE, BETRAYING OUR TRUST
*echo effect on "trust" with harmonized backing vocals*
[Verse 2]
The sunlight through the window feels like a distant call
Whispers of ambitions, shadows on the wall
I see your eyes, so hopeful, yet they pierce through my disguise
I want to be the person who fulfills all those ties
*soft guitar with increasing intensity and light piano accents*
[Chorus]
OH, I FEEL LIKE I'M LETTING YOU DOWN!
THIS COUCH IS MY PRISON, I'M LOST IN THIS TOWN
YEARNING TO BREAK FREE, TO DO WHAT I MUST
BUT I'M STUCK IN THIS CYCLE, BETRAYING OUR TRUST
*echo effect on "trust" with harmonized backing vocals*
[Bridge]
*quietly starts with minimal instrumentation*
If I could just rise up, shake off these chains
I'd show you all the love and ease all your pains
Together we'd conquer, together we'd soar
But this couch, it holds me, and I'm craving for more
*crescendo with upbeat piano and guitar melody*
[Chorus]
OH, I FEEL LIKE I'M LETTING YOU DOWN!
THIS COUCH IS MY PRISON, I'M LOST IN THIS TOWN
YEARNING TO BREAK FREE, TO DO WHAT I MUST
BUT I'M STUCK IN THIS CYCLE, BETRAYING OUR TRUST
*echo effect on "trust" with harmonized backing vocals*
[Outro]
*soft acoustic guitar and piano chords fading out*
I'll fight these demons, break through the night
For you and for me, I'll win this fight
One day soon, I'll rise and shine
And leave this couch, leave this behind
*soft whispering vocals fading out with nostalgic melody*
