Ashes in the Undertow

Verse 1 (Melodic)

Shadows on the ceiling breathe your name again,

I’m walking through the wreckage of the places we’ve been.

Your ghost is in the wires, sparking every thought,

I keep on reaching forward but I’m always getting caught.

Pre-Chorus (Melodic → Grit)

Every step I take just drags me deeper down,

But I won’t wear your memory like a chain around.

Chorus (Harsh + Melodic Mix)

(Harsh)

BURN IT DOWN— LET THE TRUTH EXPLODE!

(Melodic)

We’re just ashes in the undertow.

(Harsh)

PULL ME OUT— I CAN’T FAKE CONTROL!

(Melodic)

But I’m rising from the fallout you left long ago.

Verse 2 (Melodic with growl accents)

Your silence hits like metal in a bitter winter storm,

A fracture in the armor where the fear is taking form.

But I’m learning how to fight with all the pieces I’ve rebuilt,

I’ll cut through every nightmare that was welded from your guilt.

Pre-Chorus (Melodic → Harsh)

I hear the walls are breaking, cracking in the sound,

I’m not the one who’s drowning — you’re the one who’s bound.

Chorus (Harsh + Melodic Mix)

(Harsh)

BURN IT DOWN— LET THE TRUTH EXPLODE!

(Melodic)

We’re just ashes in the undertow.

(Harsh)

PULL ME OUT— I CAN’T FAKE CONTROL!

(Melodic)

But I’m rising from the fallout you left long ago.

Bridge (Harsh low growl → Melodic soar)

(Harsh)

Can’t chain me—

Can’t claim me—

I’m the fire you feared inside…

(Melodic soaring)

I found a voice within the quiet,

Now it’s tearing through the tide.

Final Chorus (Full intensity)

(Harsh)

BURN IT DOWN— LET IT ALL ERUPT!

(Melodic)

You can’t pull me to the deep below.

(Harsh)

CUT THE CORD— I’VE HAD ENOUGH!

(Melodic)

I’m breaking from the undertow.
