Static in My Head

Wake up to a cracked screen glow

Friends in my phone

But the room stay cold

Scroll, scroll, til the thumb get numb

Everybody talk loud

I just go dumb

Told ’em “I’m fine,” that’s a copy-paste

Laugh in the chat

Keep deleting what I say

Heart in the drafts I never send

Whole life typed out

Then I hit “end”

I’m depressed in a crowd, feel alone in the noise

Hundred little faces, zero real voice

Wires all around but the line dead still

Got a big, big world and an empty will

I’m depressed in a crowd, feel alone in the noise

Echo in my head tryna drown out the void

If they ever see me, would they even know?

Or just scroll past slow (yeah)

Scroll past slow

Door locked, but my thoughts break in

Dark joke on my tongue

Then I choke it in

Mama say “pray,” I say “maybe later”

Faith in a box with the old newspapers

Sink in the couch like quicksand grip

Tears won’t fall

They just park on my lips

Therapist card in my wallet, bent

Keep tellin’ myself

“I’ll call when it’s bad,” then it went

I’m depressed in a crowd, feel alone in the noise

Hundred little faces, zero real voice

Wires all around but the line dead still

Got a big, big world and an empty will

I’m depressed in a crowd, feel alone in the noise

Echo in my head tryna drown out the void

If they ever see me, would they even know?

Or just scroll past slow (yeah)

Scroll past slow

Do you ever feel this? (hey)

Talk back to the ceiling

Eyes on the fan blades

Prayin’ for a feeling

If you in the dark too

You ain’t on your own

We can share this silence

Till it feel like home

I’m depressed in a crowd, feel alone in the noise

Hundred little faces, zero real voice

Wires all around but the line dead still

Got a big, big world and an empty will

I’m depressed in a crowd, feel alone in the noise

But if you hear this voice, that’s a small bright glow

If you feel like me, let the mask hang low

We can move that slow (yeah)

Not so alone
