About
A song about dating apps, disconnection and doomscrolling
Lyrics
Start
Guitar Hook
Life reduced to swiping left and right
Scrolling through the void in the pale blue light
Profiles lined up like a deck of cards
Laughing at the boredom, hiding all our scars
Verse 1
Notifications chase me through another night
It’s easier to scroll than try to make it right
Everyone's performing, no one wants the truth
Chasing validation just to numb our youth[Chorus]
Swipe left of reality fading into screens
Matching with a ghost or another meme
Connection is a scroll, validation hits
Profiles in the dark pretending we exist
Post-Chorus
Whoa whoa empty hearts on hold
Whoa whoa dopamine so cold
Verse 2
I'm just another pixel in a cynical parade
Tapping out confessions to a digital charade
Filters on my feelings and the bio is cliché
We chase another stranger just to fill the day
Pre-Chorus
We never look up from the glare
Lost in the feed we share
Wasting days in disrepair
Do you even care?
Chorus
Swipe left of reality fading into screens
Matching with a ghost or another meme
Connection is a scroll, validation hits
Profiles in the dark pretending we exist
Post-Chorus
Whoa whoa empty hearts on hold
Whoa whoa dopamine so cold
