[Verse 1] Busy life, but I'm alone Deadlines hit, but I’m just cold Phone light’s on in a quiet room Watching lives that look like gold Scrolling like I'm searching me But I’m filtered too, can't you see? Smiling eyes that don’t reflect No caption shows what’s underneath [Hook] I post a smile, you tap a lie The real me's trapped behind this shine Scrollin' slow, but no one sees I’m stylized — not really me Shiny skin, designer glare Empty room, no one cares “You’re so loved” — they always say But hearts don’t mean they’ll stay [Verse 2] Each photo makes me stop and think “Is this me?” — I overthink Put on gloss and fake a laugh While my real eyes fade to black More likes, more hollow More views, more shallow I’m gaining numbers, losing self Wearing masks, just like everyone else Congrats to them, I swear I mean But I still ache from what I’ve seen Not jealousy — it’s something worse That sinking in a silent verse [Bridge] My real face? too raw, too blunt So I softened it up for love I want Would they stay if they saw the cracks? Would they leave if I peeled it back? Posted it — checked again No DM, just bots again All this flash, a fleeting flame I lose myself to win this game [Hook / Outro] I post a smile, you tap a lie The real me's fading with each try Scrollin' slow, but no one sees I’m stylized — not really me Truth can’t fit inside a frame Just the pretty parts remain If you met me face to face Would you stop — or swipe away?
