 Chaos inside

 Caught in the riptide

Underneath the current (Current, current)

 Lamеnts in my mind

With something on the other side

 Calamity inside

 With nothing left behind

 The ground underneath me shaking

 I can see my world upending

The dam's about to break    (I'm never getting out alive)

 I'm standing on the brink     (Not ready for the afterlife)

Hatred is breeding, the vultures are feeding

      Dm
It's taking a turn for the worst

Can't keep pretending, can't change the ending

    Dm
And everything's buried underneath
