Scrolling through my photos past
Moments captured, moments cast, can't you see?
Filters on, I edit life
Hiding all my inner strife, can't you see?
Validation on my screen
Heart emojis paint the scene
In this world of endless dreams
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest of them all? Can't you see?
Every night I'm dressed to shine
Gotta show the world I'm fine, can't you see?
Lights flashing, I'm the star
Chasing dreams but falling far
Hear the cheers, here we are
In this game, it's who we are
Social feeds and magazine spreads
Another like, another thread, can't you see?
Selfies in the perfect light
Capturing the best of life, can't you see?
Likes rising, I'm adored
Chasing trends, but feeling bored
Hear the buzz, here we are
In this race, it's who we are
But in the dark when I'm alone
I'm glued to my glowing phone, can't you see?
Searching for that next big hit
Needing more than just a bit, can't you see?
Lights flashing, I'm the star
Chasing dreams but falling far
Hear the cheers, here we are
In this game, it's who we are
Maybe one day I'll look back
See the cracks in this facade, can't you see?
