Lyrics

I don't belong in the world. That's what it is. Something separates me from other people Everywhere, they're everywhere. They're not going to let me go. Everywhere I turn There's something blocking my escape. It's trying to prevent me from living. He's trying To Take me back somewhere. I can't fight anymore... I, I don't know what's real anymore!

I feel a sense of not fitting into the world, experiencing separation from others, and a pervasive feeling that I am constantly surrounded and restrained. There's a force trying to hinder my escape, preventing me from living, and attempting to take me back to an undesirable place. I express a profound exhaustion and confusion about reality.


Endless streams of constant negativity

Continuous exposure to negative content without respite.

Saturate my screen

The negativity is overwhelming and dominates the digital space I interact with.

Mental health eroding like a shoreline

My mental well-being is deteriorating steadily, much like the gradual erosion of a shoreline.

Feeling more and more unseen

I feel increasingly unnoticed or ignored by others.

Pale blue light, I long for your company

Expressing a desire for the calming presence of a pale blue light, perhaps a reference to a device screen or a metaphor for seeking solace amidst the chaos.

Despite the way you make me feel

Despite the negative impact, I still yearn for the companionship of the digital world represented by the pale blue light.

More and more, I ask myself the question:

Questioning the authenticity of experiences and information online, struggling to distinguish between what is genuine and what is not.

What is fake and what is real?

The uncertainty about the authenticity of online content deepens.

Searching for the next hit of dopamine

Actively seeking and scrolling through content online in pursuit of the fleeting pleasure provided by dopamine releases.

Never satisfied

Despite consuming content, there is a constant dissatisfaction and an insatiable desire for more.

Companies that profit on my outrage

Companies profit from the user's emotional responses and reactions.

Algorithms justified

Algorithms are used to justify and perpetuate the cycle of outrage and negativity.

Your eyeballs sold to the highest bidder

Personal data and attention are commodified, traded to the highest bidder.

Attention makes the world go 'round

Recognition of the power of attention in shaping the world and perpetuating the cycle of online consumption.

Feeling helpless just to feel something

Feeling powerless but compelled to engage with online content to feel any emotion.

I watch the world burn to the ground

A metaphorical observation of witnessing societal collapse or chaos online without being able to intervene.

Continued consumption of negative content online, reinforcing the idea of being trapped in a cycle of doomscrolling.
