[Verse 1] The water folds me in like an old regret, Tides of unfinished hours pull at my chest. Every task a shadow, anchoring me down, Even breathing feels like breaking ground. [Pre-Chorus] I kick against the silence, but the silence doesn’t move, Currents of tomorrow drag me farther from the truth. [Chorus] I’m drowning in the weight of everything undone, The deeper I go, the slower I run. Every motion steals more than it gives, I’m too tired to die, but too heavy to live. [Verse 2] Checkmarks on paper bleed into the sea, Promises I made have grown barnacles on me. The light is up there, but it bends and breaks, Too far to reach without something else to take. [Pre-Chorus] I whisper to the surface, but the words dissolve as foam, The deeper I surrender, the further I am from home. [Chorus] I’m drowning in the weight of everything undone, The deeper I go, the slower I run. Every motion steals more than it gives, I’m too tired to die, but too heavy to live. [Bridge] And if I could rise, I’d only find A sky collapsing with unfinished time. So maybe the ocean is where I belong, Buried in silence, too tired for a song. [Final Chorus] I’m drowning in the weight of everything undone, The deeper I go, the slower I run. Even my heartbeat is learning to hide, A quiet surrender beneath the tide.
