[Verse 1]
I’ve memorized the pattern of the flickering lights
I’ve lost count of the hours and the endless nights
The air is stale, smelling like grease and rust
My fingerprints are buried in a decade of dust

I look in the mirror, but I don’t see me
Just a puppet on a string who’s forgotten how to be free.Pre-Chorus]

The clock is crawling — metal teeth and sand (9)
No map, no door, no promised wonderland (9)
(Click-clack) the cams rewind my breathing (9)
(Tick-tock) the motors wait for something to be leaving (9)
[Chorus] (hook emphasized: front-load "Five nights")
Five nights and counting — I'm locked in these walls (9)
Five nights and falling when the ceiling calls (9)
Static in my ears like the roar of the crowd (9)
Grease-stained tickets clutched, numbers burn loud (9)
I bang on the glass — a hollow, iron cry (9)
Locked inside the CCTV glow, I watch time die (11)
Locked inside... Five nights — these walls! (6/short earworm)

The monitor blinks — a thousand empty faces (9)
Broken songs loop in cold, electric spaces (9)
(Click-click) the animatronics count the beat (9)
(Tick-tick) my heartbeat copies their iron
