(I abandon hope)

(I abandon hope)

I conjure the phantom of another hollow you

Then drag it to the bottom

Pretending in a cycle I find sacred

But I mean nothing to you

Just a piece of the pattern in your ruse

I spiral into chaos riptides

I abandon hope

Believing we'd survive this

While sinking in a crisis

That's drowning only me

Tried to follow ghosts

I'm grasping for the shadows

As if it ever mattered

I'm unseen

I'm drifting in water that will overtake my thoughts

And pull me to the bottom

Descending in a matrix

I am a foolish whimper

Disappearing with no echo and

I spiral into chaos riptides

I abandon hope

Believing we'd survive this

While sinking in a crisis

That's drowning only me

Tried to follow ghosts

I'm grasping for the shadows

As if it ever mattered

I'm unseen

The pressure crushes my chest

(The pressure)

(The pressure)

(The pressure crushes my chest)

The pressure crushes my chest

The anchor on my heart

(The pressure crushes my chest)

(But feels gentle compared to the anchor on my heart)

(I abandon, abandon hope)

I abandon hope

Believing we'd survive this

While sinking in a crisis

That's drowning only me

I abandon hope

Tried to follow ghosts

I'm unseen

I abandon hope

Believing we'd survive this

(I abandon hope)

While sinking in a crisis

That's drowning only me

(I abandon hope)

(I abandon hope)
