Two AM Lantern

Drop

Screens on low

Screens on low

Verse 1

Two in the morning my phone is a lantern

Nothing but pixels and heat

I scroll till my thumbs get a cramp

Every tab open a secret I keep

The cursor blinks patient and slow

Search bar remembers my name

Somebody's drawing a version of me

Better than I am

Chorus

R thirty-four at night

Glow on my face like a bruise

R thirty-four at night

Everything blurry and blue

I don't want sleep

I don't want truth

Just the hum of the room

Post-Chorus

Low low low

Keep the brightness low

Low low low

Nobody has to know

Verse 2

Curtains drawn against morning

Battery down to a sliver

I could log off I could go dream

Instead I just shiver and linger

Folders and folders of strangers

Everyone lonely like me

We trade our whole lives for a picture

Then delete it and grieve

Pre-Chorus

Count the hours count the likes

Count the reasons I stay

Every refresh is a little more ache

Chorus

R thirty-four at night

Glow on my face like a bruise

R thirty-four at night

Everything blurry and blue

I don't want sleep

I don't want truth

Just the hum of the room

Bridge

Tabs tabs tabs

Close them all

Tabs tabs tabs

Still they call

I am a window a wire a wall

A window a wire a wall

Chorus

R thirty-four at night

Glow on my face like a bruise

R thirty-four at night

Everything blurry and blue

I don't want sleep

I don't want truth

Just the hum of the room

Post-Chorus

Low low low

Keep the brightness low

Low low low

Nobody has to know
