Beneath the Surface"

Verse 1 Deep in the rock, where the shadows breathe, Locked down in silence, beneath the sea, Promises made in the world above, They said it was safe, they said it was love. But something stirs in the sleeping stone, A restless beat like a warning moan. The ground shakes with a heavy sigh, Secrets rise to the midnight sky. Chorus Oh, beneath the surface, it starts to break, Pressure’s climbing with every shake. We built our walls, so sure, so blind, Now the cracks are calling, "We’re out of time." We tried to bury the ghost we made, But under the waves, it won’t stay contained. Verse 2 The light goes dark in the cold blue deep, Spreading fast in a toxic seep. Clouds of sorrow, clouds of sin, A poison tide rolls within. Machines scream loud as the gauges spike, Red lights flash in the dead of night. Rivers of gas, rivers of fear, We run but we’re already here. Chorus Oh, beneath the surface, it starts to break, Pressure’s climbing with every shake. We built our walls, so sure, so blind, Now the cracks are calling, "We’re out of time." We tried to bury the ghost we made, But under the waves, it won’t stay contained. Bridge And the world keeps spinning, the cities sleep, But far below, it’s breaking free. We played with fire, we cast it down, But no one listened, no one heard the sound. Chorus Oh, beneath the surface, it starts to break, Pressure’s climbing with every shake. We built our walls, so sure, so blind, Now the cracks are calling, "We’re out of time." We tried to bury the ghost we made, But under the waves, it won’t stay contained. Outro In the end, we stand and face, The ghost we made, now out of place. And from the ground, it rises slow, A silent scream we’ll never know.
