Awake at the Bottom

[Intro – soft acoustic guitar, warm room tone, minimal ambience] [Verse 1 – acoustic groove, light percussion, intimate] I walked into a room Forgot why I was there Took the same way home from work Just because I could Forgot to do the things I should It’s hard to care Days keep passing quietly Like they don’t need me around Every thought feels temporary Like it’s lost and never found [Pre-Chorus – subtle build, low harmonies] I don’t feel broken I don’t feel brave I just keep floating Wave after wave [Chorus – gentle lift, fuller guitars, emotional] I'm not afraid to drown But I've got no plans For when I hit the bottom And start breathing again I don't want to wake up Please don't wake me up Awake at the bottom Awake at the bottom [Verse 2 – slightly stronger groove, added guitar layer] I fell in love with a girl Because I wanted to Not because I needed to But I'm starting to She says I’m distant lately Like I’m halfway gone I smile and say I’m okay But I’ve been drifting all along [Pre-Chorus – repeat, slightly more intensity] I don’t feel tragic I don’t feel saved Just stuck between What I want and what fades [Chorus – repeat, slightly bigger] I'm not afraid to drown But I've got no plans For when I hit the bottom And start breathing again I don't want to wake up Please don't wake me up Awake at the bottom Awake at the bottom [Bridge – breakdown, acoustic guitar + soft vocal, reflective] If this is sleep Don’t shake me free If this is peace Just let it be I’m not lost I’m not found Just learning how to stay down [Final Chorus – emotional peak, added harmonies] I'm not afraid to drown But I've got no plans For when I hit the bottom And start breathing again I don't want to wake up Please don't wake me up Awake at the bottom Awake at the bottom [Outro – stripped back, acoustic guitar fades] Awake at the bottom Still breathing somehow
