Dvskvane - Drowning In Glass

A woman willingly follows someone deeper into a consuming connection, even as it strips away her breath, identity, and sense of escape. What begins as surrender becomes suffocation, leaving only the terrifying certainty that he will never let her go. Lyrics Below: [Intro] The water rises. My mouth goes still. No air above me. Only you. One breath left. I spend it on you. [Verse 1] Pull me lower. Hand on my chest. Hold me where the daylight ends. Under. (Breathe the water.) Under. Cold on my tongue. Salt in my teeth. Your shadow moving underneath. Dark is the water. Warm is your skin. I know what waits there. I still lean in. [Refrain] I drown. You hold. I fall. You don't let go. I drown. You hold. And down... and down... we go. [Pre-Chorus] My ribs remember how air used to feel. My body is begging. My mouth says— Deeper. (Breathe the water.) Deeper. [Verse 2] Blue in my vision. Blood in my ears. Your hands are steady. Mine disappear. Nothing above us. Nothing below. Only the pressure. Only your hold. Lust is the current. Fear is the undertow. [Refrain] I drown. You hold. I sink. You don't let go. I break. You hold. How deep... can we go? [Bridge] Cold in my mouth. Dark in my eyes. Your shape disappears but your touch survives. The surface is somewhere I no longer know. There is no horizon. Only below. Down through the silence. Down through the blue. Down where there's nothing— Nothing but you. (Breathe the water.) I drown. (Breathe the water.) You hold. (Breathe the water.) I drown— [Breakdown] Wait— (Breathe.) [Chorus] CRUSH THE BREATH OUT OF MY CHEST! BLACK WATER OVER MY HEAD! I CAN'T SEE YOU— I STILL FEEL YOU— TEETH LOCKED! RIBS BURN! NO SKY! NO RETURN! I DROWN— YOU HOLD! I BREAK— YOU HOLD! [Verse 3] PULL ME DOWN PAST EVERY LIGHT! PAST THE BLUE! PAST BLACK! PAST NIGHT! NO ABOVE! NO WAY HOME! YOUR HANDS— MY BONES— I DROWN— YOU HOLD! [Final Chorus] NO AIR! NO SUN! NO SURFACE LEFT TO RUN! NO NAME! NO SHORE! I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS BEFORE! I DROWN— YOU HOLD! I DROWN— YOU HOLD! (Breathe the water.) [Outro] You're still holding me. I can't feel the surface. I can't feel my hands. (Breathe the water.) No. No... You never let me go. I drown. (drown...) Down. (down...) You hold. (hold...) One breath left. I spent it on you.
