Suffocate

==Background==
Suffocate is an original song by nostraightanswer featuring DAINA. Lupin's version is featured on Syntech+.
The author explains that the hurricanes Irma and Harvey are what inspired the song. While the song illustrates a "strange, back-and-forth relationship, and a search for control", nostraightanswer included some vocabulary associated to large storms, especially the ones at sea. As such, the song has been composed as a "just-in-case fundraiser" for the preparations when the hurricane Irma was approaching the land.

==Lyrics==
Deep breath, take the dive 
Don't believe that I'll survive 
And yet you could carry on 
No death, no surprise, 
no divine intervention could 
prove you were ever wrong 
I cry to myself 
Wonder why you never helped 
When I needed you the most 
Came out of my shell 
Now I'm living through a hell 
Like I'm stranded on a coast 
So you drag me out to sea 
Hoist the anchor onto me 
As you let it sink 
And I barely blink 
I'm falling underneath... 
You. 
I don't wanna suffocate, no more 
I don't wanna hit the ocean floor 
Pounding in my chest, my very core 
My heart: a safety vest, but then it tore 
I don't wanna suffocate, no more 
I don't wanna hit the ocean floor 
With a hold on nothing, I'll slip away 
Face a thousand torrents and roaring rain 
When it's time to face the hands of fate 
Know if I fall under I'll suffocate 
(Suffocate) x2 
My back to the wind 
Just want you to let me in 
All it takes is an open door 
Our breath, our sin 
Can we stop if we begin? 
It's a pain, that we're wanting more 
We say we don't mind 
But we're just passing the time 
Til we scatter or reform 
And I know I'm flying blind 
But it's just simply unkind 
To be stirring up a storm 
So you drag me out to sea 
Hoist the anchor onto me 
As you let it sink 
And I barely blink 
I'm falling underneath... 
You. 
 
 
I don't wanna suffocate, no more 
I don't wanna hit the ocean floor 
Pounding in my chest, my very core 
My heart: a safety vest, but then it tore 
I don't wanna suffocate, no more 
I don't wanna hit the ocean floor 
With a hold on nothing, I'll slip away 
Face a thousand torrents and roaring rain 
When it's time to face the hands of fate 
Know if I fall under I'll suffocate 
I don't wanna suffocate, no more 
But I've already hit the ocean floor 
Pounding in my chest, my very core 
I'll become the eye of my own storm 
I won't wait 
to suffocate 
Cause I now control the chains 
of my own fate
