Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Soft, melancholic piano chords begin, slowly building. After a few measures, a gentle acoustic guitar joins in, playing a haunting melody. The bass and drums enter subtly, creating a somber yet steady rhythm.]
[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, something's not right,
A heavy feeling, I can't seem to fight,
Stomach's churning, head's in a spin,
Waves of awfulness rollin' in.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't find my strength, it's slipping away,
Each breath I take feels like I'm swaying.
[Chorus]
I'm drowning in these waves of awfulness,
Feeling like I'm getting sick, oh yes,
Trying to stand, but I can't find my ground,
In this storm of sickness, I'm losing my sound.
[Guitar Solo]
[A trippy soulful electric guitar solo]
[Verse 2]
Every hour passes, I'm losing more time,
Caught in this whirlpool, nowhere to climb,
Body's aching, can't keep the pace,
Reflections of health, a distant trace.
[Pre-Chorus]
Voices are muffled, echoes in my head,
Tossing and turning in this fevered bed.
[Chorus]
I'm drowning in these waves of awfulness,
Feeling like I'm getting sick, oh yes,
Trying to stand, but I can't find my ground,
In this storm of sickness, I'm losing my sound.
[Instrumental Bridge]
[A brief instrumental interlude featuring a cello and violin duet, creating a mournful and introspective atmosphere. The strings slowly crescendo, adding layers of depth and emotion.]
[Bridge:Continued]
Eyes are heavy, dreams are blurred,
In this haze, thoughts are slurred,
Waiting for the dawn to break,
Hoping for a cure to take.
[Chorus]
I'm drowning in these waves of awfulness,
Feeling like I'm getting sick, oh yes,
Trying to stand, but I can't find my ground,
In this storm of sickness, I'm losing my sound.
[Guitar Solo]
[Another guitar solo, this time with more intensity, reflecting the desperation and longing for relief. The solo builds up to a climactic peak before gently descending back into the rhythm of the song.]
[Outro]
One day I'll find the shore again,
Ride out these waves, escape this pain,
But for now, I'm caught, I'm lost,
In these waves of awfulness, paying the cost.
[Final Chorus]
I'm drowning in these waves of awfulness,
Feeling like I'm getting sick, oh yes,
Trying to stand, but I can't find my ground,
In this storm of sickness, I'm losing my sound.
[Instrumental Outro]
[The song fades out with the same melancholic piano chords from the intro, accompanied by a soft, slow strumming of the acoustic guitar. The strings return, gently playing a soothing melody as the song gradually comes to a quiet, reflective close.]
