**Intro**
Yeah…
Sometimes it get heavy
**Verse 1**
I been talkin’ to the mirror like it understand
Tryna find myself, slippin’ through my hands
Room feel small when the thoughts get loud
Whole world cheerin’, but I don’t bow
Got success sittin’ right on my chest
Still feel empty when I get rest
I smile easy, but it don’t stick
Happiness come, then it dips real quick
**Pre-Chorus**
They say “slow down, you’ll be alright”
But my mind don’t sleep at night
**Chorus**
I been sinkin’ when I should float
Heart too heavy for this little boat
Every wave got somethin’ to say
I listen even when I drift away
Yeah I been low tide, waitin’ on light
Still breathin’, just losin’ the fight
If I go quiet, don’t mean I’m gone
I’m just tryin’ to make it to the dawn
---
**Verse 2**
I remember when the dreams felt warm
Now they hit like a sudden storm
Everybody askin’ “what’s next?”
I’m still tryna clean the mess
I give pieces of myself away
Hopin’ somethin’ stay
But love leak out through the cracks
I don’t know how to take it back
**Pre-Chorus**
If I stop movin’, I feel it all
So I keep runnin’ into walls
**Chorus**
I been sinkin’ when I should float
Say I’m fine, but my voice broke
Every night feel the same somehow
I’m still here, just barely now
Yeah I been low tide, stuck in my head
Talkin’ to ghosts instead of friends
If I seem distant, that’s the truth
I don’t mean to—just tryin’ to get through
---
**Bridge**
Maybe peace ain’t loud or clean
Maybe it live in the in-between
If I’m hurt, that don’t mean I’m weak
Just means I feel things deep
---
**Verse 3**
I ain’t lookin’ for savin’ grace
Just a little space
To sit with the weight I hold
Before my heart turn cold
I been strong so long it ache
Smilin’ for everybody’s sake
If I break down in the dark
Please don’t think that’s all I am
**Final Chorus**
I been sinkin’, but I still breathe
Still got hope, even when it leave
If tomorrow come, I’ll try again
That’s the promise that I defend
Yeah I been low tide, but tides change
Even oceans feel pain
If I don’t shine the way I used to
Just know—I’m still here with you
---
**Outro**
Yeah…
Some nights feel endless
But I’m still swimmin’
