[Verse 1] The abyss is pulling under A jagged strike of thunder Black waves collapse upon the shore I'm drowning, begging for some more [Pre-Chorus] My pulse is pounding like a drum Waiting for the storm to come A deadly game, a feral child Lost inside the water's wild [Chorus] Riptide! Got me spinning Riptide! Dark beginning Riptide! No surrender Riptide! Sweetest danger [Verse 2] The current wakes a monster deep To harvest what the shadows keep I plunge below, embracing fear With phantom whispers in my ear [Pre-Chorus] The ocean breathes, it drags me in Scraping salt across my skin A violent ride, the surface breaks I love the havoc that it makes [Chorus] Riptide! Got me spinning Riptide! Dark beginning Riptide! No surrender Riptide! Sweetest danger [Bridge] [Tempo slows down, building tension] Pressure rising, light decays Swallowed by the endless maze Lungs are burning, mind is clear I found my sanctuary here! [Guitar Solo] [Intense, fast-paced] [Chorus] Riptide! Got me spinning Riptide! Dark beginning Riptide! No surrender Riptide! Sweetest danger [Outro] No surrender... Down below. Let the riptide take control. Take control. [Fade out with sound of crashing waves] [End]
