I’m Sick of Swiping

--- Really leaning into the EDM / Glitch side of the Country / EDM blend. Wanted a lot of chopped vocals and got what I was looking for. Something different for the "album" and something that really tested out the persona to see if it could do other styles. Worked out fairly well. Got some fun elements in there. Has a nice beat to it even with the stuttering. :-) ~David --- [Musical Introduction] [Digital glitches, chopped vocal breaths, distorted notification pings, beat slowly forming] [Verse 1] Blue light glow at two a.m. Same faces, new lies again Six foot five in every bio All “love dogs,” all “never psycho” Filtered smiles, borrowed dreams Everybody’s living better on a screen Say you’re “deep,” say you’re “real” But your favorite song’s whatever’s trending this week [Pre-Chorus] Swipe left, Swipe right, dopamine drip Promise me sparks, then vanish mid-text [Chorus] I’m sick of swiping, sick of pretending Every spark dies before it’s even beginning Profiles polished, hearts on lease Everybody wants a body, nobody wants peace I’m sick of swiping, pixels don’t bleed If this is love, it’s moving way too cheap I don’t need perfect, I don’t need hype I’m just tired of choosing faces every night [Verse 2] Gym pics, fish pics, mirror shots “Entrepreneur” with a nine-to-five and a parking lot “You up?” texts like it’s profound No hello, no depth, just hunting around One says “vibes,” one says “no drama” Both got baggage bigger than their mama I scroll past ghosts, red flags in lace If this is the game, I forgot why I played [Pre-Chorus] Swipe fast, swipe numb, swipe ‘til I feel Like connection’s something we don’t reveal [Chorus] I’m sick of swiping, sick of the chase Every “maybe” got a disposable face Chemistry measured in five-second clips If it ain’t instant fire, it’s fingertips I’m sick of swiping, glitch in my head So many options, still lonely in bed I don’t need forever tonight I just want something honest in real life [Musical Interlude] [Hard EDM + glitch drop, chopped vocals, distorted “match” sounds, stuttering beats] [EDM Glitch Solo] [Bridge] Maybe I’m old-school, maybe I’m slow But I still believe you gotta show your soul I want a voice crack, not a curated line Something messy, something mine [Verse 3] I close the app, let the silence ring Funny how quiet feels like everything No more faces I’ll never meet Just me, my flaws, and the city streets [Final Chorus] I’m sick of swiping, but I still hope That somewhere real lives outside this code I don’t want perfect, don’t want fame Just a pulse that beats when you say my name I’m sick of swiping, tired but true If love’s still breathing, it ain’t living in blue So I’ll log off tonight, let the noise subside If it’s real, it won’t need a swipe [Lyrical Outro] [Glitched vocal fade] Swipe… swipe… No match… Just me. [Musical Ending] [Beat fractures, glitches dissolve, low pulse fades out]
