About
A story about dreams unfulfilled and the traps of social media.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Mornings in the mirror, sighing at the lines
Two kids in the kitchen, caught up in their lives
Stacks of empty coffee cups beside unpaid dreams
She clicks another story, scrolls through faded scenes
Pre-Chorus
She’s humming in the living room, alone by the phone
Waiting for a message to know she’s not unknown
Chorus
Scrolling through her story for the world to see
Every little heart and thumbs up becomes her company
Searching for connection in a filtered view
Sharing every sorrow just to feel something new
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh
Chasing the glow
Verse 2
She stands beneath the neon, waiting for a song
Hopin' someone’s watching, that she'll belong
Dreams of smoky stages, voices in the dark
Wanna trade the silent nights for a brand new start
Pre-Chorus
Sometimes she wonders if the music’s just pretend
But every empty feed reminds her to post again
Chorus
Scrolling through her story for the world to see
Every little heart and thumbs up becomes her company
Searching for connection in a filtered view
Sharing every sorrow just to feel something new
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh
Chasing the glow
Bridge
She laughs with strangers, dances with the night
A thousand faces watching, none feel quite right
Memories in pixels, hope lost in the feed
Longing for a moment that’s hers alone to keep
Chorus
Scrolling through her story for the world to see
Every little heart and thumbs up becomes her company
Searching for connection in a filtered view
Sharing every sorrow just to feel something new
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh
Chasing the glow
Oh oh oh
Searching for home
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh
Chasing the glow
Oh oh oh
Searching for home
