Delete Me to Free Me

[Verse 1]

Blue glow

2am

Thumb numb from the scroll

Highlights

Half-truths

Cut me paper-thin

Friends in tiny squares

Perfect teeth

Perfect trips

I’m here in your bathroom light

Zoomed in on every fault I fix

[Pre-Chorus]

Who am I

When no one’s watching?

Who am I

Off this screen?

[Chorus]

So I delete me to free me

Pull the plug

Kill the feed

Let it bleed out slow

If no one sees it

Did it still mean anything?

Guess I’m about to know

I delete me to free me

Every little like

Every bite that you stole

If I disappear from your little glass world

Maybe I get back my soul

[Verse 2]

Numbers on my face

Telling me my worth

Every heart

Every flame

Burned a hole in my nerves

Kept my dinner cold

Just to get the angle right

Chased that tiny rush

Till it chased away my life

[Pre-Chorus]

Who am I

Past the filter?

Who am I

Off this stage?

[Chorus]

So I delete me to free me

Pull the plug

Kill the feed

Let it bleed out slow

If no one sees it

Did it still mean anything?

Guess I’m about to know

I delete me to free me

Every little like

Every bite that you stole

If I disappear from your little glass world

Maybe I get back my soul

[Bridge]

[Beat drops to a low pulse]

One last post

“BRB”

But I don’t say

How long I’ll be

I watch it shake

Then fade to gray

(yeah)

First deep breath

I’ve had in days

[Chorus]

I delete me to free me

Pull the plug

Kill the feed

Let it bleed out slow

If no one sees it

Did it still mean anything?

Guess I’m about to know

I delete me to free me

Every crooked thought

Every mask that I wore

If I disappear from your little glass world

Maybe I walk through my door

[Outro]

Blue glow

Gone black

Just me in the dark

And for the first time

I feel like a start
