Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1) Blue light washing over my face Headlines screaming from a different place Every swipe another siren call World on fire in a five inch wall Push notifications stacking up Tiny earthquakes in a coffee cup Everyone’s right, everyone’s wrong All day long, all day long ⸻ (Pre-Chorus) I can feel it in my teeth Static underneath Like a radio that never sleeps (Chorus) So I turn it off Kill the signal, cut the cord Shut the window, lock the door I like the silence more So I turn it off Let the panic fade to gray Try, the world won’t go away It just keeps spinning anyway ⸻ (Verse 2) Hot takes drifting through the air Secondhand opinions everywhere Every problem in my hand But I don’t know where to stand Everyone’s an expert now Every whisper’s shouting loud Every tragedy live streamed Every nightmare in HD ⸻ (Pre-Chorus) My head’s a crowded room No space to think or move Like I’m breathing someone else’s fumes ⸻ (Chorus) So I turn it off Kill the signal, cut the cord Shut the window, lock the door I like the silence more I turn it off Let the panic fade to gray But the cracks don’t go away They’re still there waiting (hey) ⸻ (Bridge – stripped down, almost spoken) Airplane mode But the plane’s still falling Curtains closed But the sirens calling Mute the noise Pretend I don’t know But ignorance won’t be The way we grow ⸻ (Final Chorus – bigger, more desperate) So I turn it off Kill the signal, cut the cord Shut the window, lock the door Lay down on the floor I turn it off Tell myself I need the break But silence doesn’t fix the ache It just helps me look away ⸻ (Outro – repeating, fading) The world keeps turning The world keeps turning Even when I close my eyes The world keeps turning
