Digital Escape

Verse 1

Blue light hums in a room that is quiet

Shadows stretch against the plaster on the white wall

Staring at a calendar where no one has circled a date

Midnight comes without a single knock at my front door

Pre-Chorus

But I grab the remote and let the glow wash in

Scrolling past the things that never meant a thing

Suddenly I see two souls start to bend

Feeling every look like they are my best friend

Chorus

She finds her color in the scripted frame

Living for the boys who do not know her name

The ache of being lonely starts to finally fade away

Holding on to hope they will find the words to say

Yeah they find the words to say

Verse 2

Stack of books is piled high on the nightstand

Reading every chapter twice just to feel the heat rise up

Tired eyes focus on a smile across a busy screen

Suddenly the heavy air feels just a little bit light

Pre-Chorus

So I press play and let the dialogue spin

Watching how the magic is about to begin

Looking for a world where nobody has to hide

Keep the sweetest moments tucked away deep inside

Chorus

She finds her color in the scripted frame

Living for the boys who do not know her name

The ache of being lonely starts to finally fade away

Holding on to hope they will find the words to say

Yeah they find the words to say

Bridge

Maybe it is fiction

Maybe it is grace

Seeing all that kindness

In a digital space

I am happy right here

Chorus

She finds her color in the scripted frame

Living for the boys who do not know her name

The ache of being lonely starts to finally fade away

Holding on to hope they will find the words to say

Yeah they find the words to say

Post-Chorus

Yeah they find it

Watching them find it

Oh she is happy now

Watching them find it
