Verse 1]
In the cracks of the floor, I hear them call,
Tiny voices behind the wall.
Footsteps echo where light won’t go,
The deeper I fall, the slower I grow.
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands reach out, but fade in snow,
Names I forgot, they still seem to know.
[Chorus]
Whispers below… they’re calling me home,
Soft as the sea where the lost souls roam.
Whispers below… they hum and they moan,
Telling me I was never alone.
[Verse 2]
Broken toys float in the tide,
Their eyes still open, too wide to hide.
Dreams drip down from the ceiling high,
Each one a tear the shadows cry.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
If I scream, will the silence stay?
If I run, will I fade away?
[Chorus]
Whispers below… they’re calling me home,
Soft as the sea where the lost souls roam.
Whispers below… they hum and they moan,
Telling me I was never alone.
[Bridge] (half-spoken, half-sung)
Shhh… don’t wake them,
They sleep in the water.
Shhh… don’t move,
Or you’ll sink farther.
(low whisper overlapping)
I can hear you breathe…
I can hear you…
[Outro]
Whispers below… fade in the rain,
Nothing remains, just echoes and pain.
Whispers below… softly they say:
"The child you were has drifted away..."
