Just Staying Not Sinking

Verse 1 The bubbles fade, the silver climbs The surface bends, then slips my mind A glassy sky I used to chase Now just a shimmer out of place Chorus Quiet now, the cold’s a blanket Quiet now, the saltwood hums I’m not sinking, I’m not stranded I’m just staying where I’m from Verse 2 My lungs go still, the fire cools The panic loosens into blue That coin of light above my hand Drifts away like borrowed plans Chorus Quiet now, the cold’s a blanket Quiet now, the saltwood hums I’m not breaking, I’m not vanishin’ I’m just staying where I’m from Bridge No more reaching, no more fight Just the tide’s slow lullaby Pressure blooms, then softens me Like I was always meant to be Outro Slow blue glow, the long exhale The current keeps what I couldn’t hold Final Chorus (half-time, layered) Quiet now, the cold’s a blanket Quiet now, the saltwood hums I’m not falling, I’m not fading I’m just staying… I’m just staying… I’m just staying…
