Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1
Keys in my hand, but I freeze at the door,
Every step feels heavier than before.
Breath caught in my chest, I can’t break free,
The world outside keeps closing in on me.
*(“don’t go… don’t go…”) *

Pre-Chorus
Heartbeat racing — pounding loud,
(boom, boom, boom)
Sweat drips down, I drown in the crowd.
Every shadow feels like it sees,
Every whisper cuts right through me.
*(“they see you… they see you…”) *

Chorus
It’s like all the eyes are on me,
(“on me, on me”)
Even if it’s just my fear.
I can’t hide, I can’t breathe,
(gasp… gasp…)
The silence screams too clear.
Nervous hands, I fade away,
Trapped inside this endless maze.
It’s like all the eyes are on me…
*(“on me… on me…”) *
Even when no one sees.

Verse 2
Concrete burns beneath my feet,
My shaking voice can’t find the beat.
One wrong move, I’ll fall apart,
The panic claws straight through my heart.
*(“help me… help me…”) *

Pre-Chorus
Heartbeat racing — pounding loud,
(boom, boom, boom)
Sweat drips down, I drown in the crowd.
Every step feels like a test,
Every glance cuts through my chest.
*(“can’t escape… can’t escape…”) *

Chorus
It’s like all the eyes are on me,
(“watching, watching”)
Even if it’s just my fear.
I can’t hide, I can’t breathe,
(gasp… gasp…)
The silence screams too clear.
Nervous hands, I fade away,
Trapped inside this endless maze.
It’s like all the eyes are on me…
Even when no one sees.

Bridge
Is it me, or is it real?
(“real? real?”)
Paranoia I can’t kill.
Every doorway feels like fire,
Every second builds it higher.
*(“higher… higher…”) *

Final Chorus
It’s like all the eyes are on me,
(“on me, on me”)
Even if it’s in my head.
I can’t fight, I can’t flee,
(“run, run, run”)
From the weight of what I dread.
Nervous hands, I fade away,
But tomorrow brings another day.
It’s like all the eyes are on me…
(“watching, watching”)
Even when no one sees.

Outro
Even when…
*(“don’t wake… don’t break…”) *
Even when no one sees.
