Nothing Left 2 Dig (Reimagined II)

[Intro – clean guitar, tape hiss, distant room reverb]

(whispered, flat)
I don’t remember when it commenced (where did it start)
Just that it never ceased (it never stopped)

⸻

[Verse 1 – clean male vocal, Midwest emo cadence]

I wake up already defeated (here we go again)
Like the day made up its mind (what’s the point)
Every notion feels second-rate (not good enough)
Like I’m borrowing someone else’s time (tick-tock)

I call it coping, you call it strength (who’s right)
I call it staying out of the ground (hold on)
But if this is me grasping on (don’t let go)
Why do I feel buried now (suffocating)

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – clean with light grit, tension rising]

I keep telling myself I’ll change (same old song)
Like I haven’t heard it before (deaf to it)
Every promise dies of old age (broken words)
Right on my bedroom floor (crumbling beneath)

⸻

[Chorus – emotional clean, restrained, bleak]

I dug a trench and hid inside (safe in the dark)
Called it peace, called it time (nothing left to hide)
If I don’t move, I don’t sink (stay still)
If I don’t feel, I don’t think (numb to it all)

I don’t wanna die (not yet)
I just don’t wanna wake up (not today)
Every day (repeat it)
To the same ending (inevitable)

⸻

[Post-Chorus – instrumental swell, detuned guitars dragging]

⸻

[Verse 2 – clean male vocal, heavier backing]

I keep poisoning myself (self-destruct)
Then asking why I’m numb (fool’s call)
I keep shaking hands with habits (bad ones)
That already know how this ends (in the end)

They say “heal yourself” like it’s easy (talk is cheap)
Like I didn’t try and fail (tried and tried)
Like I didn’t bleed quietly (in silence)
Just to keep this shit from showing (mask up)

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2 – clean + grit, more venom]

I know the pattern by heart (etched in)
I just don’t wanna break it (fearful)
It’s the only thing that stayed (constant)
When everything else escaped me (alone)

⸻

[Chorus 2 – full band, desperate but not hopeful]

I dug a pit and called it home (familiar)
I don’t feel secure anywhere I go (unsettled)
If this is rock bottom (too deep)
Why do I still descend? (falling)

I don’t wanna die (fighting)
I just don’t wanna keep lying (truth hurts)
Saying this fight (it’s endless)
Isn’t slowly killing me (bit by bit)

⸻

[Breakdown – deathcore, half-time, screamed male vocal]

(short, violent, no space)
I KNOW WHAT’S WRONG (it’s clear)
I JUST DON’T CARE ANYMORE (apathy speaks)
I KNOW I’M DYING (truth hurts)
I’M JUST BORED OF THE WAR (enough)

DIG (deeper)
DIG (keep going)
DIG (unearthing)

THERE’S (nothing there)
NOTHING (hollow)
LEFT (nothing left)

⸻

[Bridge – ambient drop, clean male vocal, exhausted]

If there’s a meaning (lost)
It skipped me (forgotten)
If there’s a reason (it’s gone)
It doesn’t need me (or me)

I tried forgiveness (forgive myself)
It didn’t stick (like glue)
I tried to change (turn around)
I just got tired of it (too tired)

⸻

[Final Chorus – stripped, intimate, fragile]

I excavated until there was nothing (emptiness)
No sign, no end (just void)
If this is all I am (acceptance)
Let it stop pretending (reveal)

I don’t wanna die (peacefully)
I just wanna stop (enough)
Feeling like I already did (release)

⸻

[Outro – abrupt, unresolved]

(single sustained note, cut mid-word)
I’m still—

[HARD STOP / SILENCE]
