Verse 1 – calm denial, cold)
The room is quiet, but my thoughts are loud again
Blue light flickers on the walls like it’s a friend
I tell myself there’s nothing here, it’s all in my head
Just shadows shaped like warnings that I’ve always misread
I breathe slow, try to reason with the fear that loops
Convince myself that nothing’s watching when the silence blooms
But in the hum of every signal, something feels off-key
Like there’s a frequency beneath the noise that’s tracing me
(Pre-Chorus – unease creeping in)
I lock my phone and turn it face down like it matters
Like turning off the screen could stop the static from what shatters
(Chorus 1 – cracks forming, strained clean)
I hear the ghost in the wires when the room goes still
Like a signal in my bloodstream that I can’t quite kill
Maybe it’s nothing, maybe it’s just me losing my grip
But something’s crawling through the silence, and it’s starting to slip
(Verse 2 – panic rising)
I see the cursor blink like it’s waiting for a cue
Feels like the dark is taking notes on everything I do
My reflection in the black mirror doesn’t look the same
Like someone else is staring back and answering to my name
The air is colder now, my pulse begins to glitch and spike
A thousand thoughts at once all fighting to be amplified
I tell myself I’m safe, but I don’t trust my mind at all
Every calm I manufacture cracks as soon as nightfall
(Pre-Chorus 2 – losing grip)
No logic left to lean on, I can’t filter out the noise
The silence isn’t silent, it’s a voice—no, voices
(Chorus 2 – full panic, layered and strained)
I hear the ghost in the wires when the room goes still
Like a signal in my bloodstream that I can’t outrun or kill
If it’s all inside my head, why does it breathe with me?
Something’s clawing through the quiet, and it won’t let me be
⸻
(Bridge – FULL HARSH SCREAMED BREAKDOWN / COLLAPSE)
(This is the mental snap — chaotic, panicked, no control)
GET OUT OF MY HEAD—
I CAN’T TELL WHAT’S REAL ANYMORE!
THE STATIC IS CRAWLING UNDER MY SKIN—
I CAN FEEL IT AT THE CORE!
I HEAR YOU BREATHING IN THE QUIET—
DON’T DENY YOU’RE THERE!
IF YOU’RE ONLY IN MY MIND THEN WHY—
DO I FEEL YOU EVERYWHERE?!
⸻
(Final Line – HARSH, abrupt cut)
GET OUT— GET OUT— GET OUT OF ME!
—CUT—
