Under the Waves

Verse 1

Beneath the surface, the light turns thin,

A kingdom of echoes pulls her in.

Every ripple forgets her name,

The shore feels distant, almost strange.

She trades her voice for a sharper sound,

Where silence doesn’t weigh her down.

And every memory starts to blur,

Like it was never meant for her.

Pre-Chorus

No hands reach back, no tide returns,

Just lessons the quiet ocean learns.

And what she gave up doesn’t cry—

It just dissolves into the tide.

Chorus

Under the waves, nothing stays the same,

Even the heart learns a different name.

And every dream that drifts too far

Becomes a shadow of what we are.

Verse 2

The surface glows like a distant wound,

A place she loved but left too soon.

Not stolen away, not forced to fall—

Just answering something deeper than all.

The sea doesn’t judge, it only takes,

And teaches her what breaking makes.

Each current hums what she forgot:

“What you were is what you’re not.”

Pre-Chorus

No villain born, no hero made,

Just pieces shifting in the shade.

And every choice that felt like flight

Turns heavier in fading light.

Chorus

Under the waves, the story bends,

No clean beginnings, no perfect ends.

Just change that lingers, slow and wide,

And something quieter left inside.

Bridge

Maybe the ocean never lied—

It just reflected what she tried

To leave behind, to cast away,

Until it learned her shape someday.

And now she moves without a sound,

Where nothing lost can still be found.

Not cruel, not kind, not wrong, not right—

Just endless depth without the light.

Final Chorus

Under the waves, it all unweaves,

Every promise the surface leaves.

And she becomes what she’s become—

Not lost… just finally one.

Outro

No happy ending carved in stone,

Just water learning how to own

The shape of someone who let go—

And never needed land below.
