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
