In the water

[intro – low pulsing synth, muffled breath] Water Water [intro – low pulsing synth, muffled breath] Water Water [chorus – open but tense, rhythmic] Water I’m in the water now In the water Now [verse 1 – intimate, restrained] I’m lost and it’s too much even though you’re here my head is full my chest is tight everything is loud inside so I hide I dive [pre-chorus – building, pressure] If you talk I can’t hear you If you reach I pull away [chorus – stronger, driving] Water I’m in the water now In the water Now [verse 2 – rhythmic, conflicted] I shut it down I close my eyes I make it quiet I survive no noise no pain no questions no light so I hide I dive [pre-chorus – tighter, urgent] If you talk I can’t hear you I know you’re here I know you are [chorus – shortened, percussive] Water In the water Now [instrumental interlude – bass pulse, drums push] [bridge – clear, exposed, less reverb] Hold my head above the water I’m scared but I’m here don’t pull me just stay don’t save me help me breathe [outro – open, released but not resolved] I’m in the water but I’m breathing now In the water In the water
