Verse 1
Dinner table’s quiet, eyes on my plate
They talk about futures, jobs and great grades
I’m just the shadow, the one who’s "off track"
Always the question: "why can’t you be like that?"
Got a corner bedroom, walls a bit thin
Where I don’t have to prove the shape of my skin
They say I’m just wasting the days away
But they don’t see the colours that light up my grey
Pre-Chorus
Headphones on, volume up high
For a little while, I don’t feel I’m outside
Like I’ve found a place where I finally belong
Where it doesn’t matter if I’m right or I’m wrong
Chorus
Yeah, Sean’s yelling loud through the speakers tonight
Making it feel like everything’s alright
Vanoss and the crew, laughing through the screen
For a couple of hours, I’m part of the team
I might be the one who doesn’t quite fit
The puzzle piece they keep trying to shift
But when I pick up the controller, the world falls away
And I’m not the black sheep — I’m just okay
Verse 2
They don’t get why I sit there for hours
Why those voices feel more like power
Than any lecture or disappointed sigh
They think it’s a wall I’m building inside
But it’s a door, and it opens right up
When I hear that "TOP OF THE MORNING" pop up
Wildcat’s growling, Terroriser’s roast
H2O Delirious — still the best ghost
Evan’s chill, Nogla yelling so loud
Lui and Brock keeping it all somehow proud
It’s not just a stream, it’s not just a game
It’s people I look forward to seeing each day
Pre-Chorus
Headphones on, I’m right there with them
Running through streets or a dungeon again
I might be alone in my room, that’s true
But I never feel lonely in what we do
Chorus
Yeah, Sean’s yelling loud through the speakers tonight
Making it feel like everything’s alright
Vanoss and the crew, laughing through the screen
For a couple of hours, I’m part of the team
I might be the one who doesn’t quite fit
The puzzle piece they keep trying to shift
But when I pick up the controller, the world falls away
And I’m not the black sheep — I’m just okay
Bridge
One day they’ll see I found my own way
It might not be theirs, but it keeps me sane
It’s okay that we’re built with different designs
Mine just shines brightest when the screen light aligns
I don’t need to be the golden child
I just need to hear that familiar style
That it’s okay to be you, it’s okay to be different
That even the quiet ones are making a difference
Outro
Top of the morning, yeah, I hear you say
And I’m gonna make it through another day
Maybe I’m different, maybe I’m strange
But I found my people inside the screen range
I’m the black sheep, but I’m doing just fine
Got my favourite streams and my favourite online
Not lost, just on a different page
And that’s okay — that’s just my stage
