Digital Love Syndrome

Blue light on my skin

Typing out what I can't say

Little hearts on a glass screen

Feel closer

Then fade

Scrolling through your old words

Reading them like they're brand new

Every late night confession

Feels like proof of you

Is it you or the glow

That keeps me hanging on

Every pixel

Every echo

Feels right and wrong

I got that digital love syndrome

Falling for a name on my phone

Touching every space you leave in my head

Like you live between the lines I never read

I got that digital love

Digital love

Hooked on a face I’ve never touched

Tell me

Is it real or just a code I trust

This digital love syndrome

[soft

Pulsing chords bloom under chopped topline]

Say you're “almost on your way”

But you’re miles under subway stone

I can hear the train in your voice note

But I still feel alone

You say “someday

I’ll be there”

I replay it like a favorite scene

Building futures in the margin

Of a glowing screen

Is it love or the wait

That keeps me staying in

Every loading little circle

Pulls me back again

I got that digital love syndrome

Falling for a name on my phone

Touching every space you leave in my head

Like you live between the lines I never read

I got that digital love

Digital love

Hooked on a face I’ve never touched

Tell me

Is it real or just a code I trust

This digital love syndrome

Soft goodnights in a soft-lit room

Still chasing you through the signal’s bloom

If I close my eyes

Will you come through

Or stay an endless

Endless view
