Scroll and compare

Wake up, check the feed before I check my mind

Everybody glowing, I’m just falling behind

Perfect little moments frozen in a frame

Everybody winning—am I the only one in pain?

Filter on a face, filter on a life

Truth gets buried under curated light

Scroll… compare… I disappear

Double tap dreams that were never here

Perfect lives in a highlight glare

Tell me why I’m still stuck right here

Scroll… compare… lose myself

Stack my worth on a digital shelf

If I log off, will I be okay?

Or just alone in a quieter way?

Numbers on a screen got me chasing worth

Like a heart ain’t valid ‘til it trends on Earth

Smile for a post, cry in the dark

Living two lives, don’t know where to start

Loading… loading… who am I?

Offline silence feels too loud tonight

Scroll… compare… I disappear…
