[Instrumental] Title: DROP Verse 1 Let me be alone — can’t you see me fade? Talking to myself in the noise you made. Sulfur in the hall, voices fill the air, Crowded in a room — but nobody’s there. I don’t want to hear them anymore, Every word just echoes like before. They keep stealing minutes from my day, Time is something they won’t give away. Pre-Chorus All these hands keep pulling at my soul, Trying hard to shape what they control. Chorus Have you ever been Just a drop inside the ocean wide? Free to fall, to flow, Not to choose, not to divide. I don’t want to play Any role you try to give to me. Let me fall again — Small enough to finally be free. Verse 2 There were all kinds of people gathered there, Making plans for who I am to wear. Choosing how and when my life should move, Drawing lines I never meant to prove. I don’t want to see them anymore, Every face’s just another door. They keep taking pieces of my time, Leaving me with questions, not with mine. Pre-Chorus Every answer written in their hands Feels like walking on someone else’s land. Chorus Have you ever been Just a drop inside the ocean wide? Nothing left to hide, Carried gently by the tide. I don’t want to play Any part inside your memory. Let me fall again — Where the silent waters carry me. Bridge No more names to learn, No more masks to wear. In the depth of blue No one’s judging there. Smaller than a word, Lighter than a sound, When you lose the weight You are finally found. Final Chorus I have always been Just a drop inside this moving sea. Never meant to lead — Only meant to be. Let me disappear Into something wide and true. If I am a drop, Then the ocean is me too. Outro (ad lib / rubato) Let me be alone… Not lonely — just free. A drop in the ocean… Is all I need to be. Choosing how and when my life should move, Drawing lines I never meant to prove. I don’t want to see them anymore, Every face’s just another door. They keep taking pieces of my time, Leaving me with questions, not with mine.
