Intro I stay still That’s what you see Light on my skin Nothing underneath You never look twice You never go deep Verse 1 I learned how to hold my breath Before I learned how to speak I kept my storms in my ribs Kept my hands steady You liked me quiet You liked me calm You thought that silence Meant I was gone But silence is heavy It builds in waves It waits its turn It doesn’t beg Pre-Chorus There’s a pull in my chest tonight Low and constant Like a warning You thought I was quiet You thought I was small Chorus Under the surface I’m pulling you in Still like a mirror, chaos within You thought I was quiet You thought I was small But I am the wave That swallows it all I don’t scream I don’t call I just rise And take it all Drop Chant Let it rise Let it rise Feel the tide Feel the tide Verse 2 Every word you threw at me Sank somewhere I couldn’t see But it stayed It stayed Pressure doesn’t disappear It changes shape It gathers here You read my calm like weakness You read my still like fear But I was learning How to move without breaking Final Chorus Under the surface I’m pulling you in Still like a mirror, chaos within You thought I was quiet You thought I was small But I am the wave That swallows it all Back to still Back to glass Like nothing happened But something did....
