about

“Sink” is my second independently released single, and was written during a really difficult time in my life when I felt completely isolated and consumed by my thoughts. The song is centered around the imagery of sinking into the sea as a metaphor for giving into my internal conflict. I was compelled to write this song as a way to express my feelings of numbness and pain that I couldn’t put into words.

lyrics

How did I get so desperate?
To fall right into the abyss
I left my mind by that shoreline
So don’t look behind

‘Cause I’ll fall back into deep blue waves
That will wash me away
I’ll look up at the sun
And watch myself fade

So let me feel enough
So I know why I get so caught up
Because I need more than a rush
To carry me into the sea
Just breath until it’s tough
But all this air is way too rough
To fuel the craziness I love
So let me sink into the sea
Sink into the sea
Sink into the sea

I watch the water flow
Giving me ambedo
But I wish you’d let me go

‘Cause I’m either numb or I feel too much
Overwhelmed now that I’ve succumbed
To all this unrequited love
Give me one sign from up above

And let me feel enough
So I know why I get so caught up
Because I need more than a rush
To carry me into the sea
Just breath until it’s tough
But all this air is way too rough
To fuel the craziness I love
So let me sink into the sea
Sink into the sea
Sink into the sea

I’m on the edge of a cliff or up on a balcony
Whichever way you envision will be the end of me
I’m on the edge of a cliff or up on a balcony
Whichever way you envision will be the end of me

Oh I am falling now
Can anyone hear me now?
Just let me
Let me feel enough
I’m sinking
Let me feel enough
I’m drowning
Let me feel enough
I’m sinking
Let me feel enough
I’m drowning
Let me feel enough
I’m sinking
Let me feel enough
