Released Aug 1, 2025 as part of Anemoia & Anhedonia

Genres: Trap, psychedelic pop, impressionism

Drowning, the penultimate track on the album, represents a turn away from the anhedonia-driven tracks of the album Anemoia & Anhedonia

. It was inspired by a conversation with my friend, where I can't remember why, but I was prompted to make "wet music". I started arranging a sparse, almost impressionist

Lyrics

Chorus:
Drowning, I swear to god I'm drowning
Flooded with anxiety, it's getting hard for me to breathe

Refrain:
Time moves still like it's frozen
At the bottom of the ocean

Verse 1:
Weak, I'm so weak
Shaking at the knees
Recalling the last words you ever said to me
So mad, I can hardly speak

I should probably get to sleep
Take a day to think
And wait 'fore I repeat my old mistakes
Before I hit this send
That could make me lose a friend
Chorus:
Drowning, I swear to god I'm drowning
Flooded with anxiety, it's getting hard for me to breathe

Refrain:
Oh, time moves still like it's frozen
At the bottom of the ocean
Flooded with anxiety, it's getting hard for me to breathe

Verse 2:
I dwell on all the times you'd turn my phrase
I dwell on you insulting all my ways, that hurt
I dwell on all the things I was too cowardly to say
Dreaming 'bout the things we could've changed,
instead of leaving it to waste

Bridge:
But now I'm through
You're in my rearview
The years of abuse all clouded grey
Since I left you
I'm in love with the hue
Of a place that's far beyond the waves

You weren't worth it
You made me feel worthless
You made my fears bright as day
I'll forget about you
Back in the sands of time
and leave you to wash away
