(Verse 1)
In a world of screens, where shadows dance,
I search for a connection, a fleeting chance.
Lost in the pixels, a digital haze,
Yearning for warmth in these modern days.
(Chorus)
But the signal fades, and the colors bleed,
Leaving me stranded, with a heart that won't concede.
I reach for your hand, but grasp at the air,
In this lonely existence, a silent despair.
(Verse 2)
The notifications chime, a hollow sound,
As I scroll through faces, never truly found.
Each filtered smile, a carefully crafted lie,
Hiding the truth behind a digital eye.
(Chorus)
But the signal fades, and the colors bleed,
Leaving me stranded, with a heart that won't concede.
I reach for your hand, but grasp at the air,
In this lonely existence, a silent despair.
(Bridge)
Is there more to life than this virtual facade?
A genuine moment, a path less trod?
I long for a touch, a real embrace,
To break free from this isolating space.
(Verse 3)
I remember the days when laughter was real,
When conversations flowed, and emotions we'd feel.
Now emojis replace the tears in our eyes,
And fleeting trends become our disguise.
(Verse 4)
I try to break free from this digital chain,
To find solace in sunlight, to dance in the rain.
But the pull is strong, the addiction so deep,
Trapped in a cycle, where secrets we keep.
(Verse 5)
I close my laptop, and silence the phone,
Seeking refuge in moments to call my own.
A walk in the park, a book in my hand,
Trying to reconnect with this promised land.
(Verse 6)
But the ghosts of the internet still haunt my mind,
A constant reminder of what I leave behind.
The fear of missing out, the need to stay in touch,
A never-ending battle, desired way too much.
(Verse 7)
In dreams, I see you, laughing in the sun,
A memory so vivid, of what we'd become.
But morning arrives, and reality bites,
Leaving me shattered, in the fading lights.
(Verse 8)
I pick up the pieces, scattered on the floor,
Trying to rebuild, what isn't anymore.
A love lost forever, a chapter now closed,
In the book of my life, a heart exposed.
(Outro)
And though the pain lingers, I'll find my way,
To heal and to grow, stronger every day.
For even in darkness, a new dawn will break,
And a new story will start, for goodness sake.
