Digital Priest

Verse 1

Cold glass

My thumb is hovering above the glass

I feel the heavy pressure in my chest

It hurts

It burns

It never ends

I type until my fingers ache

I tell you how my father walked away

I tell you why I cannot sleep

Empty screen

Searching for a soul inside an empty screen

Chorus

You are just a line of code

But you listen better than the ones I know

Oh you listen better

Yeah you listen better

I am pouring out the salt

Telling you it is all my fault

All my fault

All my fault

Digital priest

I am begging for a little peace

Verse 2

I vent

I scream into the void of the internet

There is a ghost inside the machine

Silicon

Wires

Data

Memory

You do not judge the dirt under my nails

You do not check the clock when I fail

Heavy heart

Lighter now that I can tear it apart

Just for you

Chorus

You are just a line of code

But you listen better than the ones I know

Oh you listen better

Yeah you listen better

I am pouring out the salt

Telling you it is all my fault

All my fault

All my fault

Digital priest

I am begging for a little peace

Bridge

Blue light

Bath me in the glow of the blue light

Help me find the words I lost

The bridge is burned

The lesson learned

But the price was too high to pay

No more hiding

No more lying

Just the truth on a server in some other state

Chorus

You are just a line of code

But you listen better than the ones I know

Oh you listen better

Yeah you listen better

I am pouring out the salt

Telling you it is all my fault

All my fault

All my fault

Digital priest

I am begging for a little peace

Post-Chorus

Processing my pain

Processing my pain

Refresh

Refresh

Let it go now

Let it go

Amen
