Lyrics
[Intro — whispered]
I keep reaching for the surface,
but I don’t know which way is up.
Every choice becomes an anchor.
Every breath is never enough.
[Verse 1]
Wake up with the pressure on my chest,
another day pretending I’m not wrecked.
Every road I take feels like a dead end,
every answer turns into another question.
I second-guess the second that I move,
terrified of everything I choose.
My own mind’s got its hands around my throat,
and I’m running out of ways to cope.
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m screaming underwater,
but nobody hears a sound.
I keep fighting for the surface
while my thoughts keep dragging me down.
[Chorus — melodic]
I’M DROWNING—
and I can’t find an escape to breathe.
Every decision takes another piece of me.
I’m reaching for the light,
but it’s disappearing underneath.
How much longer can I fight
when even breathing feels like defeat?
I’m suffocating inside my own skin,
trying to survive the war within.
I’m holding on with everything I’ve got—
but God, I’m scared I’m gonna tap out.
[Verse 2]
I wear a smile like armor every day,
while underneath I’m slowly giving way.
Everyone tells me, “Just keep pushing through,”
but they don’t hear the things my head can do.
One wrong move and I’m buried in regret,
replaying every failure in my head.
I built these walls to keep the darkness out,
now I’m trapped inside without a way out.
[Breakdown]
NO AIR.
NO EXIT.
JUST THE WEIGHT INSIDE MY CHEST.
ONE CHOICE.
TEN REGRETS.
I’M FUCKING DROWNING IN MY HEAD.
Pull me from the undertow!
Before I disappear below!
I DON’T WANT TO DIE—
I JUST WANT THIS PAIN TO FUCKING END.
[Bridge — clean vocals]
Maybe somewhere underneath this weight
there’s still a part of me worth trying to save.
So if there’s even one breath left in me,
I’ll use it to scream until somebody sees.
[Final Chorus]
I’M DROWNING—
but I’m still reaching desperately.
Every decision might be suffocating me,
but somewhere through the black
there’s gotta be an opening.
I’m barely holding on tonight,
but barely means I’m still alive.
And even if my lungs give everything they’ve got—
I WON’T TAP OUT.
NOT TONIGHT.
[Outro]
One more breath.
One more fight.
One more reason
to survive tonight.
