V6-WILD

[Verse 1] (SUNG, low and monotone, half-submerged) Pressure on the hull when I breathe (breathe) Blue turn to black at six hundred feet I don't call nobody, don't need no reach (no) Sonar keep pinging like it's talking to me Lights on the window, fish with no eyes They been down here longer than lies I took everything I couldn't take (couldn't take) Sank it slow, watched it fall to a quiet place [Pre-Hook] (stretched piano, tape slowing down) And the light up there getting thin, thin, thin I forgot what it felt on my skin, skin, skin [Hook] (SUNG, monotone, heavy autotune, drowned reverb) Bottom of the water, that's my new address (address) Navy black around me, nothing left to press Oxygen is money and I spend it slow (slow, slow) Six thousand meters where the lost things go Bottom of the water, I don't wanna surface (nah) Quiet so complete it got its own purpose Heavy like a secret, floating like a ghost (ghost) Down here even drowning feels like coasting [Stop-time, hard audio cut, one second of silence] [Verse 2] (SUNG, slightly more melodic but still low) Submarine creaking like an old man's knees (knees) Pressure gauge dancing past the guarantees Found a shipwreck with the safe still shut Somebody's whole life just rusting in the mud I wave at the divers that I never had (never) They sink past my window looking sad Every dream I dropped from the boat above Landed right here where I keep my love [Hook] (SUNG, monotone, drowned, ad-libs echoing far behind) Bottom of the water, that's my new address (address) Navy black around me, nothing left to press Oxygen is money and I spend it slow (slow, slow) Six thousand meters where the lost things go Bottom of the water, I don't wanna surface (nah) Quiet so complete it got its own purpose Heavy like a secret, floating like a ghost (ghost) Down here even drowning feels like coasting [Bridge] (tape slow-down effect, choir of processed samples rising, glitchy arpeggio stuttering) If they find me (find me) tell them I was weightless If they drain it (drain it) I'll be on the floor Every heavy thing I carried on the surface Turned to feathers when it sank to my door [Final Hook] (SUNG, everything stacked, bass crushing, synths floating) Bottom of the water, that's my new address (address) Navy black around me, nothing left to press Oxygen is money and I spend it slow (slow, slow) Six thousand meters where the lost things go [Outro] (white noise swelling, piano dissolving, tape slowing to a stop) Ping... ping... silence
