Lyrics
**The rhythm mix of hip-hop beats with laid-back, introspective feel.**
**Main Melody: haunting & melancholic, somber atmosphere. Vocal harmonies to add depth and sense of introspection. Dissonant chords can be introduced subtly to emphasize moments of emotional intensity.**
**The bass be deep and steady, providing grounding force that supports the melody.**
**Combination of kick, snare, & hi-hats to create a tight, rhythmic foundation with occasional breaks to keep the flow interesting.**
**The lead vocals raw, focus on conveying the deep-seated emotions of inner turmoil & collapse. Mix of soft, almost whispered verses with more intense delivery in the chorus can create a powerful contrast.**
**Backing vocals can add harmonies during the chorus&echo certain phrases in the verses to enhance the introspective nature of song.**
**The main vocal must male. The backing vocals must female.**
*Verse 1:*
*(Start melancholic. Gradually introduce the vocals.)*
The nights are long, the days don’t feel the same,
I'm lost inside my mind, no one left to blame.
I wish I could escape, find peace in the deep,
*(Bass add a subtle, melodic line.)*
But the only way out is to die in my sleep.
*Chorus:*
*(The chorus slightly more intense, with full instrumentation.)*
I want to die in my sleep, let the darkness take me whole,
*(Vocals be a mix of soft and intense.)*
I’m tired of this fight, can’t seem to find my soul.
*(Guitars add reverb-heavy strumming.)*
The world’s too loud, but inside it’s worse,
*(Backing vocals can add harmonies here.)*
I’m lost in this silence, drowning in my curse.
*Verse 2:*
*(The second verse reintroduce the melancholic melody.)*
I see the world outside, but it’s too far away,
*(Guitar riff slightly heavier.)*
The pain’s too real, it’s here to stay.
*(Vocals convey a sense of resignation.)*
I want to feel something, but I’m numb inside,
*(Drums add a soft, steady rhythm.)*
Just let me drift away, no need to hide.
*Chorus:*
I want to die in my sleep, let the darkness take me whole,
*(Vocals should be strong yet vulnerable.)*
I’m tired of this fight, can’t seem to find my soul.
*(Backing vocals can add depth to the chorus.)*
The world’s too loud, but inside it’s worse,
I’m lost in this silence, drowning in my curse.
*Bridge:*
*(The bridge should slow down, creating a reflective mood.)*
The thoughts in my head, they’re tearing me apart,
I’m trapped in this prison, locked inside my heart.
*(Vocals should be full of raw emotion.)*
I reach for the light, but it’s fading away,
*(Bass add a deep, resonant line.)*
Just let me sleep, let me fade to gray.
*Outro:*
*(The outro gradually fade, leaving a sense of resignation.)*
I want to die in my sleep, no more pain, no more lies,
*(Lead guitar play a final, haunting riff.)*
Just let me drift away, no more goodbyes.
*(Vocals should be soft and distant.)*
The world’s too loud, but inside it’s worse,
I'm lost in this silence, drowning in my curse.
