[Intro – faint static, vinyl crackle, soft piano note]
(ambient noise swells faintly)
[whispered]
black water…
it’s rising…
can’t breathe…
(low sub-bass slides in under glitchy textures)
[Verse 1 – whispered, minimal delivery]
black water in my lungs
no air, no sun
shadows stretch, they crawl
can’t feel at all
(soft inhale, faint static crackle)
[Chorus – hypnotic hook, fragile vocal layers]
“black water’s pulling me under…”
“black water’s pulling me under…”
“black water’s pulling me under…”
(loop softly with rising tension)
[Verse 2 – whispered fragments]
glass eyes, i fade
the light decays
no sound, no flame
just static in my veins
(glitch crackle swells faintly)
[Chorus – repeat with more tension]
“black water’s pulling me under…”
“black water’s pulling me under…”
“black water’s pulling me under…”
(soft harmonies layer in)
[Bridge – whispered collapse]
maybe i was never here
just code, just fear
the sky dissolves, the lights go dim
i let go, i let it in
(beat drops out, eerie pads swell)
“Under… (ahh…)”
“Fade… (ooh…)”
“Pull… (ahh…)”
“Sink… (ooh…)”
“Lost… (ahh…)”
“Gone… (ooh…)”
“Cold… (ahh…)”
“Drown… (ooh…)”
“Breath… (ahh…)”
“Black… (ooh…)”
“Water… (ahh…)”
“Can’t… (ooh…)”
“Hold… (ahh…)”
“Slipping… (ooh…)”
[Final Chorus – fragile and layered, fading away]
“black water’s pulling me under…”
“black water’s pulling me under…”
“black water’s pulling me under…”
(vocal layers dissolve into static)
[Outro- heavily reverbed]
Fade away...
Gone...
Under...
(fade out: vinyl crackle, faint piano loop repeating)
