Drowning

(Verse 1)
The darkness comes, with eyes closed tight
A heavy blanket, stealing all the light
Then water comes rising, a silent threat
caught in the current, tangled in a net

[Pre Chorus]
Swept under the sea (I couldn’t breathe)
Reaching for light (a fading need)
Can’t breathe, can’t fight, (can’t see)
Reaching for light, (I’m drowning)

(Chorus)
Can’t breathe, I’m drowning, (fighting for air)
stuck in this nightmare, (trapped in despair)
Lungs are burning, body goes numb
Lost in the sea, (where my body succumbs)

(Verse 2)
The surface above, a distant light gleams
Fighting to breathe , a desperate dream
The weight of the water, a darkened shroud
Screaming for help, but there's no one around

[Pre Chorus]
Swept under the sea (I couldn’t breathe)
Reaching for light (a fading need)
Can’t breathe, can’t fight, (can’t see)
Reaching for light, (I’m drowning)

(Chorus)
Can’t breathe, I’m drowning, (fighting for air)
I’m stuck in this nightmare, (trapped in despair)
Lungs are burning, body goes numb
Lost in the sea, (where my body succumbs)

(Bridge)
Is this just a dream, or is it more?
Reflecting fears, can't be ignored
A flood of doubt, starting to show
A call from the heart, letting me know

[Pre Chorus]
Swept under the sea (I couldn’t breathe)
Reaching for light (a fading need)
Can’t breathe, can’t fight, (can’t see)
Reaching for light, I’m drowning!!

(Chorus)
Can’t breathe, I’m drowning, (fighting for air) 
I’m stuck in this nightmare, (trapped In despair)
Lungs are burning, body goes numb
Lost in the sea, (where my body succumbs)

(Outro)
(Wake up, please, from this brooding sea)
(Find the surface, and finally breathe)
Drowning in nightmares, and losing hope
took my last breath and (then I awoke)

Emo-rock, orchestral elements, alt rock, eerie mood, palm muted guitar intro with strings, 90s post grunge, tense
