Verse 1
I’m drowning in my mind,
Tryna reach the surface every time
The walls keep closin’ in so tight
I’m screaming but there’s no sound tonight
It’s a place I can’t escape,
Running circles, stuck in place
Every breath feels way too late
I’m holding on but starting to break
Pre-Chorus
I swim through thoughts that pull me under
Fight the waves but they feel stronger
Every step just makes me wonder
Will I ever make it out?
Chorus
Ohhh, I tried, I tried, I tired
Fighting fires that won’t expire
Calling out but I’m still silent
Lost inside this ocean of my mind
Ohhh, I tried, I tried, I tired
Every hope feels torn and wired
I’m so close but feel so far
I’m drowning in my mind
Verse 2
I fake a smile, say I’m fine
But I’m breaking down behind my eyes
Counting scars I can’t rewind
Every second stuck on repeat time
I’m sinking deep in what I feel
Don’t know what’s fake or what is real
I reach for help but lose my grip
And fall back into it
Bridge
If I stop fighting, will I float?
Or disappear where nobody knows
I’m so tired of staying strong
Just wanna feel like I belong
Chorus (Repeat)
Ohhh, I tried, I tried, I tired
Fighting fires that won’t expire
Calling out but I’m still silent
Lost inside this ocean of my mind
Outro
I’m drowning in my mind…
But I’m still trying…
