Trapped
Trapped opens with unflinching honesty. Written in October 2025, it examines the quiet prison of self-imposed limitation — the comfort of safety and control that gradually becomes its own kind of confinement. With no walls of steel, only the accumulated weight of regret and avoidance, the narrator confronts the realisation that standing still for years has come at a cost.
The bridge offers a hard won turning point — life comes with no warranty, and freedom requires the courage to accept that. A powerful and honest beginning to a record that examines the human condition without flinching and without self-pity.

Sonus Lucis — Trapped
Verse 1
It started long ago,
Adrift and out of reach.
An island out to sea,
Where no one sailed to me.
Verse 2
It seemed the right thing to do,
Where the worries were few,
Security, and control.
The only risk was my soul.
Pre-chorus
I thought it was safe
Standing still for years,
Now I cannot outrun,
The sense I lost my way.
Chorus
I'm trapped, in a prison I made,
No walls of steel,
Just regrets I've arrayed.
I'm trapped, it's a product of mind.
I can't even appeal,
To the strength I can't find.
Verse 3
Control became my chains,
Thinking safety would prove,
Avoiding risk was the key,
It just restricted my moves.
Verse 4
Endless walls they surround,
And darkness crushes in.
Echoes of my doubts,
The fear I live within.
Bridge
But in the end, I have found,
Life comes with no warranty.
There comes a time in every life,
The need to just be free!
Chorus
I'm trapped, in a prison I made,
No walls of steel,
Just regrets I've arrayed.
I'm trapped, it's a product of mind.
I can't even appeal,
To the strength I can't find.

Chorus
I'm trapped, in a prison I made,
No walls of steel,
Just regrets I've arrayed.
I'm trapped, it's a product of mind.
I can't even appeal,
To the strength I can't find.
I'm trapped
