sinking

V6-MINI

Intro Never heard the splash But after sinking I will drown Hook I'm sinking deep. I'm sinking deep. I'm sinking deep. I'm sinking deep. Verse 1 Head full of static, every thought got a stutter. Heart in the basement, hear the pipes start to shudder. Mirror throw punches, now my reflection my rival. Breathing look normal, but surviving ain't survival. Smile for the public, hide the flood in my chest. Wore a mask so long, now it fit like my flesh. Hope on a leash, getting dragged through the dirt. Every stitched scar got another rip underneath. I'm a lighthouse drowning, built to die in the waves. Giving everybody light while I'm digging my grave. Calendar turning, but the grief never leave. Different date, same devil tucked under my sleeve. Ceiling fan spinning like it counting regrets. Every revolution saying, “You ain't finished yet.” My pulse keep knocking like debt at the door. Every heartbeat asking what it's beating for. Soul full of rust, every dream corroded. Heavy is the pain when the love unloaded. Even my echo don't answer my speech. Loneliness locked every hallway I reach. Faith got erased like chalk in the rain. Every prayer dissolve before it carry my name. If drowning had a language, I'd speak it with ease— Depression never screams… it whispers beneath. Hook I'm sinking deep. I'm sinking deep. I'm sinking deep. I'm sinking deep. Verse 2 My mind wear camouflage, hide the war in plain sight. Sunshine hit my skin, but it never feel bright. Happiness waved, I was stuck on the shore. Watching every blessing drift further offshore. I'm a cracked compass, every north point south. Truth taste bitter every time it leave my mouth. Depression pay rent, now it sleep in my ribs. Moved all the furniture inside where I live. The bed became quicksand dressed up as sleep. Every pillow know the tears that I keep. My laugh got subtitles reading, “Please don't ask.” I'm fluent in pretending, got a master's in masks. The moon my roommate, we don't say a word. Silence so loud it's the only thing heard. I write SOS in invisible ink. Nobody notice while I quietly sink. Shadow on my heels, but it walk like a king. Hope grew wings, then forgot how to sing. I became a ghost before my body deceased… Still breathing, still fading—I'm sinking deep. Outro I'm sinking deep. I'm sinking deep. I am drowning.
