It's 4 AM and the room is pitch black
Except this glow keeping me off track
Staring at a 6-inch glass, losing my mind
Hunting for a ghost that I left behind
My eyes are burning but I can't look away
Waiting for a text you'll never say
Same old rerun stories getting so old
Washing over my face, turning me cold
Stuck in the blue screen, bleeding through the night
Swearing that I'm fine under this cold light
I hate how it looks, but I love how it feels
Dancing with a shadow till the morning reveals
Scroll past a birthday I wasn't invited to
Scroll past a beach, a dog, a someone-new
Zoom in like the pixels are gonna explain
Why everyone's fine and I'm here again
Drowning in the static, floating in space
Trying to erase every trace of your face
Thumb's on autopilot, heart's on repeat
Every refresh is a little defeat
Stuck in the blue screen, bleeding through the night
Swearing that I'm fine under this cold light
I hate how it looks, but I love how it feels
Dancing with a shadow till the morning reveals
I know it's a window with nobody in it
I know I'm the only one still awake in it
But it's the one light in this room right now
And turning it off feels like turning you off too
Stuck in the blue screen, bleeding through the night
Swearing that I'm fine under this cold light
Feeding on the memory, feeding on the lies
Just me and my blue screen and my burning eyes
