Whispering Depths © 2026 nobotaro [Verse 1: intimate, restrained] Beyond the fading waves Where even light lets go A distant voice Rises from below Shadows drift through blue Still far away Like lines on old sea charts The currents pull me down [Pre-Chorus: sparse, suspended] The tide remembers Dreams without a name [Chorus: wider, hypnotic, controlled] Deeper and deeper I sink Where light has never been Whispers in the dark Slowly unmaking me Deeper and deeper I fall Through the endless blue Whispers in the dark Slowly unmaking me [Verse 2: closer, fragile] Silver shapes pass by Slow as half-faded dreams Fragments of another life Rise through the deep Names and faces fade Boundaries disappear Only a faint light remains In my hands [Pre-Chorus: sparse, suspended] The tide remembers A song beneath the waves [Chorus: wider, deeper, controlled] Deeper and deeper I sink Where light has never been Whispers in the dark Slowly unmaking me Deeper and deeper I fall Through the endless blue Whispers in the dark Slowly unmaking me [Bridge: bare, surrendering, long pauses] I let go of my name I let go of my form Everything I carried Drifts away, one by one Sorrow Joy Even wishes Once held close Melt into waves [Bridge Expansion: vast, ancient, distant] The whales are singing A song before the first light [Final Chorus: vast, restrained, dissolving] Deeper and deeper I sink Where light has never been Within the whispering depths I slowly come undone Deeper and deeper I fall Through the endless blue Within the whispering depths I slowly come undone [Outro: near-whisper, distant, unresolved] Whispering Depths Something whispers Far away Still whispering
