I'm Drowning v2

Melancholic trance at a restrained tempo with intimate trembling lead vocals, close-mic breath detail, sparse felt piano, and sustained minor-key pads, Haunting plate reverb, cold room tone, subtle rain ambience, distant string layers with slow wave-like motion, fading delay tails, and a luminous piano peak in the quietest section

V5.5

[Verse 1] Every breath is getting harder, like the night against my lungs I whisper prayers to empty rooms, but no one ever comes Shadows echo all the things I never found the words to say And I’m sinking through the silence that won’t wash itself away [Pre-Chorus] If you could hear the breaking in my chest Would you pull me from this dark, or let me rest? [Chorus] I’m drowning, deeper every second that I try The world is moving, but I’m fading from its tide Reaching out with hands too tired to fight the waves If I disappear, would anyone remember my name? I’m drowning… I’m drowning. [Verse 2] The mirror shows a stranger wearing pieces of my pain Eyes like dying starlight, flickering in rain Every memory is water filling up the space inside And I choke on all the love I never got to say goodbye [Pre-Chorus] And if I fall beneath the weight of everything I’ve been Could the sea make me clean enough to breathe again? [Chorus] I’m drowning, deeper every second that I try The world is moving, but I’m fading from its tide Reaching out with hands too tired to fight the waves If I disappear, would anyone remember my name? I’m drowning… I’m drowning. [Bridge] Pull me up or let me go - I’m somewhere in between Where the water turns to whispers and the world becomes a dream I’m not asking you to save me, just don’t leave me here alone I’ve been calling out for someone, but the ocean has my bones [Final Chorus: soft, breaking] I’m drowning, but I still want to believe That there's a hand somewhere made to carry me Through the waves, through the dark, through the ache inside my chest I’m drowning - but I’m trying my best.
