Lyrics

Every word, written by AI.

I cry every single night

When other kids learned how to have fun,
I was drowning in an ocean, nowhere to run.
Playing with demons late at night,
Back then, I never understood my life.

Seventeen, and I'm dying while I'm trying,
Fake smile on my face, inside I'm crying.
I made a friend, his name is Depression,
He calls my name, trapped in my own reflection.

My emotions are twisted, my childhood's a blur,
So many words inside, but I can't say a word.
When I try to speak, it cuts like a knife,
Ten feet deep in the ocean, just trying to survive.

Do you remember my name? Do you know my pain?
I wear this fake smile while I'm drowning in the rain.
Demons late at night, old memories in my brain,
I'm trying to escape, but I'm sinking once again.

About this track

How this lo-fi song was made.

“acoustic, a sad, intimate song, fingerpicked aco” is an AI-generated Lo-Fi song with vocals, 2:16 long. It was created in Octa from one short text description: the lyrics, melody, vocal performance, arrangement and mix were all generated from that idea, then published by @calvinmothofela95 to the Octa community in October 2026.

The drums sit soft and slightly behind the beat, the keys are warm and a little detuned, and the tape hiss and crackle are part of the arrangement on purpose. The lyrics on this page are the exact words the AI wrote and sang for this track.
