Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I carry ghosts from back when I was breaking everything I touched Nights that left me hollow, chasing highs that hurt too much I swear I’ve changed the locks, told the darkness it can’t stay But old habits whisper low, pull me back the same old way [Pre-Chorus] I want the light, I want the clean, I want to leave it all behind But when the quiet hits, the pull gets strong, and reason fades from mind [Chorus] I’m drowning in these waves again, crashing on the shore Bad past calling out my name, dragging me once more I fight to break the surface, reach for something new But the undertow remembers every stupid thing I do Drowning mind, drowning mind—help me make it through (Through… through…) [Verse 2] I built a better version, piece by piece on shaky ground Promised myself no more circles, no more falling down Yet here I stand at midnight, bottle in my shaking hand One more slip won’t kill me—or so the liar says again [Pre-Chorus] I hate the mirror staring back, the one who knows the truth But tomorrow I’ll try harder, claw my way back to the proof [Chorus] I’m drowning in these waves again, crashing on the shore Bad past calling out my name, dragging me once more I fight to break the surface, reach for something new But the undertow remembers every stupid thing I do Drowning mind, drowning mind—help me make it through (Through… through…) [Bridge] Maybe one day I’ll outrun the echoes of who I used to be Find the strength to cut the rope, set the old me free If I keep on swimming upward, even when it burns like hell There might be air worth breathing on the other side as well [Final Chorus] I’m drowning in these waves, but I’m not giving in Bad past tries to claim me, but I won’t let it win I reach up for tomorrow, claw through every sin Rising slow, rising slow—gonna let the healing in (Let it in… let it in…)
