[Intro – (ambient guitar + lo-fi beat starts)
(softly)
Yeah…
I been tryna scream but I’m drowning in silence
Yeah… 404Leon
⸻
[Chorus – melodic emo rap with slight autotune]
I’m drowning in silence, nobody hears
Stuck in my head, been alone for some years
Demons inside, they been feeding my fears
I cover my pain with a smile and some tears
I scream but no echo, I bleed and it’s quiet
My mind is a riot, my heart is on diet
Love’s just a word, but the hurt is a science
I’m drowning in silence, yeah I’m drowning in silence…
⸻
[Verse 1 – rap flow picks up, moody guitar in background]
Used to have light but I lost it in shadows
They say move on but I’m stuck in the gallows
Time don’t heal when the cuts go deep
So I stay up late, I don’t ever sleep
Messages ghosted, feel like a ghost
I don’t get close, just overdose
On memories, enemies, all in my head
Wishin’ the mirror would lie instead
[Pre-Chorus – whispered, building tension]
Pain in my veins like a melody
Can’t find peace in the remedy
I’m so gone, can’t remember me
Who am I? Just a memory…
⸻
[Chorus – same as above, more intense delivery]
I’m drowning in silence, nobody hears
Stuck in my head, been alone for some years
Demons inside, they been feeding my fears
I cover my pain with a smile and some tears
I scream but no echo, I bleed and it’s quiet
My mind is a riot, my heart is on diet
Love’s just a word, but the hurt is a science
I’m drowning in silence, yeah I’m drowning in silence…
⸻
[Bridge – distorted guitar solo with vocoder vocals]
Can’t fix what you can’t see
I break ‘cause you ain’t me
Tried love, it just caged me
Now I’m lost, so sedate me…
⸻
[Verse 2 – more aggressive emotional delivery, trap drums kick in harder]
Tryna make peace with the voice in my head
But he told me I’m better off dead
Fake smiles, fake friends, I’ve been misled
Now I keep my heart cold like a medshed
Don’t text me “you good?” if you ain’t real
Don’t tell me you care if you won’t feel
Every night’s war and I’m losing the deal
Life’s just a movie I’m tryna not feel
⸻
[Final Chorus – layered vocals, echo effects]
I’m drowning in silence, nobody hears
Stuck in my head, been alone for some years
Demons inside, they been feeding my fears
I cover my pain with a smile and some tears
I scream but no echo, I bleed and it’s quiet
My mind is a riot, my heart is on diet
Love’s just a word, but the hurt is a science
I’m drowning in silence… yeah I’m drowning in silence…
⸻
[Outro – instrumental fade with reverse guitar and ambient reverb]
(soft whisper)
404Leon… gone in the static…
