[STYLE: dark mythic siren lament 80 BPM Dm deep sub minimal trap sparse piano sonar water fx no choir contralto close mic] [t0 INTRO] [ocean rumble+sub swell+sonar+lowpass] [vocal breathy close mic+highcut+sat+reverb] i went under... not to drown but to disappear where you can’t reach me now [t1 VERSE 1] [piano sparse+sub sustain+light texture] [vocal calm close+sat+delay] they thought i sank ‘cause i finally broke like the tide took me down when i lost hope but i don’t go under from fear or defeat i go where the fire can’t follow me [vocal +harmonic] i saw the cracks when the hull first split when the vows went quiet and the haze got thick i carried the burden inside my chest while you let your fantasies do the rest [sub pulse] [vocal firmer+edge] you wanted more when the frame was gone another life in a breaking home i felt the ocean pulling below while you swam to shore in a burning glow [drop piano keep sub] [vocal mono bandpass] now you walk like a king above the waves but i’ve seen the rot in the crown you crave undead fire with a borrowed name playing a partner like a staged refrain [t2 PRE] [no drums+sub low+reverse swell] [vocal low+wide whisper] and when i go still it’s not surrender it’s deep water thinking it’s long-sighted and measured [vocal delay] i know the damage my voice could bring but i don’t sink to die like other wrecked-out things [t3 CHORUS] [sub+slow toms+pad] [vocal full+low octave+wide] my silence is depth it’s pressure contained it’s the part of me choosing not to rise in flame [vocal +whisper+ghost] i could pull you under show every scar map every fracture name exactly what you are [vocal softer] but i’ve got two sons in the current with me and a daughter learning what love should be so i stay below where the water is true [drop] [vocal dry] not scared of you— [sub hit] [vocal full] aware of what i could do to you [t4 VERSE 2] [minimal clicks+sonar pulse] [vocal close breathy] no shoreline waiting no hands to hold just open water and learning control [vocal stereo move] every exchange like a chessboard turn every word a place i could crash or burn i don’t get the luxury of falling apart i’ve got little eyes mapping my heart [soft shimmer] [vocal soft] one is quiet like a tide held in soft soul carrying everything one is lightning in a spinning sea a moving storm that looks like me [vocal warm+chorus] and my little girl with the watching gaze learning love from the shape i take so i choose each wave that i let them see with the care of a guarded sea [vocal internal+reverb] inside i replay every break and bend every place i tried to defend that’s the curse when you see too deep you still feel the man you can’t keep [vocal firm+sat] but love without edges will take your hand drag you under without a stand [t5 VERSE 3] [dark drone+lowpass sweep] [vocal distant] they say the silence came all at once but it built in tides i couldn’t outrun every pause was me trying to save what was left of a sacred place [vocal slight drift] but hope gets heavy when it’s one-sided when truth gets twisted and love divided and one day survival outranks repair and the ocean answers: there’s nothing there [sub steady] [vocal grounded] i’m not here raging to prove i bleed i’m here tending the life i seed i’m here pulling the roots from the floor so my children don’t inherit war [vocal edge] i remember it all i don’t lose the thread every word you twisted still lives in my head you thought my softness would make me fall through— but deep water women see straight through you [t6 BRIDGE] [sub only+faint sonar] [vocal whisper lowpass] this isn’t absence this is design [vocal delay tail] a boundary drawn in salt and time [vocal wide whispers] a mother choosing what she will hold what gets carried what gets let go [vocal present] i keep the fury below the line so their world stays whole and their light stays mine [t7 FINAL] [piano+stable sub] [vocal clean wide] my silence is depth it’s disciplined grace it’s knowing exactly what i could erase [soft toms] [vocal steady] i could end you clean with the truth i keep but my children deserve a safer sea [warm pad] [vocal warm] so i write it down like a ledger of waves turn the wreckage into what i raise [stop] [vocal dry] i step below not afraid of you— [sub swell] [vocal firm+low octave] i step below because i’ve learned what sirens do [t8 OUTRO] [no drums+fade sub+water wrap+sonar] [vocal soft] you search the surface you call my name [vocal warm] but i built my world where you can’t bring furious flame [vocal intimate] for my sons for my daughter for the queen i became [vocal dry] i went quiet but i remember every name
