Verse 1
I’ve been choking on silence, swallowing rust,
Building my castle from broken trust.
Every damn promise sank into the deep,
Now the monsters I buried won’t let me sleep.
These scars ain’t pretty—they’re carved in stone,
Proof I survived every night alone.
You called it living, I called it war,
Now I don’t recognize me anymore.
Pre-Chorus
I’ve been six feet under while breathing air,
Screaming my lungs out but nobody cared.
Chorus
So drag the fucking ocean if you wanna find me,
I’m buried beneath every lie that defined me.
I’m not your saint, I’m not your ghost,
Just another soul that the darkness almost chose.
The waves can crash, let the whole world break,
I’ve drowned a thousand times and I’m still awake.
You can’t kill what learned to survive the pain—
I’ll crawl from the deep and rise again.
Verse 2
Every mirror spits hatred back in my face,
Like I’m just another mistake to erase.
I’ve punched these walls till my knuckles bled,
Trying to silence the war in my head.
Fuck every voice that called me weak,
They never saw the hell underneath.
Every heartbeat’s another fight,
Every sunrise stole from the night.
Pre-Chorus
The pressure keeps pulling me farther below,
But hell froze over before I’d let go.
Chorus
So drag the fucking ocean if you wanna find me,
I’m buried beneath every lie that defined me.
I’m not your saint, I’m not your ghost,
Just another soul that the darkness almost chose.
The waves can crash, let the whole world break,
I’ve drowned a thousand times and I’m still awake.
You can’t kill what learned to survive the pain—
I’ll crawl from the deep and rise again.
Bridge
I was the weight chained to my own feet,
A heart that forgot how the sunlight feels.
But even the deepest water runs out of depth,
And even the damned can steal back their breath.
So let the current try to drag me down,
I’ll turn the undertow into my fucking crown.
Breakdown
You wanted a body…
You found a survivor.
You wanted my silence…
You built a goddamn fighter.
Every scar’s another chapter.
Every wound’s another flame.
I won’t disappear beneath the water—
You’ll remember my fucking name.
Final Chorus
Go ahead—drag every river, every sea, every grave.
You’ll never find the man I used to be.
He died the day I quit begging to be saved.
Now I’m the storm beneath the tide,
The fire the waves could never hide.
I built my strength from shattered bones,
From empty nights spent all alone.
If I’m going down, I’ll choose the fight.
If I break, I’ll still ignite.
The darkness made me…
But it doesn’t fucking own me.
Outro
The water still calls…
But I don’t answer anymore.
I became the thing
That survived the storm.
