[Intro]
Yeah
Sink slow
Let it breathe
[Verse 1]
Eyes open but the room feel shut
Heart heavy like it filled with dust
Phone screen glow but it don't mean much
Hundred missed calls, still scared of touch
I been running from the shadows in my chest
Old scars turning into new stress
Tell myself "you fine", lie through my teeth
'Cause the mirror keep showing what I don't wanna see
[Chorus]
Drowning in the darkness
Head under water, can't fight this
Every little breath feel heartless
Reaching for a hand in the quiet
Drowning in the darkness
Hope on the edge, I might slide off
If I disappear, would they notice?
Drowning in the darkness
[Verse 2]
Mama said "pray", I been tryna talk
But the words get stuck when the tears unlock
Boys in the group chat all play tough
But the jokes hit different when you feel cut up
Late night scrolling through the highlight reels
Wonder how they smile when I can't feel
Make a laugh in the back of the class
Then I ride home numb with a mask, like
"Yeah I'm good", same script, same line
Sleeves tugged low, can't show my mind
If pain had a sound it'd be my name
Echo in the hall every single day
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
If you in the dark too, say "yeah" (yeah)
If you feel the weight on your chest, still here (here)
We can be the light for the ones who scared
I ain't got it all, but I swear I'm there
'Cause I been at the edge with my feet off
Only thing that pulled me was a weak call
Just a "you okay?" from a real friend
Tiny little word made the fall end
[Chorus]
