[Verse 1]
Screen light burns my eyes at 3 AM
Another notification, another pretend
White walls of my room closing in
While your heart rate's dropping, where have you been?
I'm watching through pixels, can't hold your hand
Emergency rooms through iPhone lens, goddamn
[Chorus]
Digital ghost in my machine
Nothing's real, nothing's what it seems
Beep beep beep, your heart monitor sings
While I'm losing myself in these virtual things
Can anybody hear me through the static?
Life's become so f*cking automatic
[Verse 2]
Convenience store nights, fluorescent dreams
Scrolling through memories, your face on my screen
Dad's factory echoes inside my head
While I'm dancing alone in this empty bed
Video calls dropping, connection's weak
Just like us baby, we're starting to leak
[Bridge]
Glitch me out, glitch me in
Lost in cyberspace, where do I begin?
Zeros and ones can't fill this void
My reality's getting paranoid
[Chorus]
Digital ghost in my machine
Nothing's real, nothing's what it seems
Beep beep beep, your heart monitor sings
While I'm losing myself in these virtual things
Can anybody hear me through the static?
Life's become so f*cking automatic
[Outro]
Mika, can you feel me through the wire?
My soul's getting tired, system's on fire
One more like, one more share
One more night of electric despair
But I'll keep dancing through this glitch
'Cause that's all we've got in this digital pitch
