Fear of Missing Out Verse 1 Pings light up my screen at the end of the day, Not about markets crashing or a CTA. It’s “How you holding up?” and “You doing alright?” From voices I’ve flown with through endless nights. We joke about loot, about ISK and wars, About stations burned and broken doors, But beneath all that noise, the numbers and clout, There’s another kind of fear of missing out. Pre-Chorus It ain’t contracts expiring or timers I’ve missed, It’s the silence that scares me more than this. Chorus ’Cause the fear of missing out Isn’t the kills or the cash we make, It’s missing the moment someone’s not okay. It’s the late-night talk, the broken voice, The chance to listen, the chance to be choice. Yeah, the fear of missing out Isn’t the fight or the payout route, It’s not being there when a hand’s reaching out. This alliance is more than space we’ve scouted— That’s the fear of missing out. Verse 2 We talk about skins and the deals in the store, About events we’re too tired to grind anymore. Someone says, “Don’t worry, you didn’t miss much,” But I know that’s never really such. ’Cause I’ve seen rough weeks behind calm replies, Heard heavy truths masked by jokes and sighs. Some days you log in just to stay afloat, Some days typing “o7” means more than you wrote. Pre-Chorus We’re scattered across time zones, oceans and towns, But we all feel it when one of us is down. Chorus And the fear of missing out Isn’t the loot that slipped away, It’s missing the night someone needed to stay. It’s the shared rapport, the unsent doubt, The “you don’t have to carry this out.” Yeah, the fear of missing out Isn’t the headline win we shout, It’s losing the chance to turn someone about. This alliance is more than stats we’ve counted— That’s the fear of missing out. Bridge Strip away the killboards, the fleets, the fame, The doctrines, the losses, the win-or-lose game. What’s left are names on a comms channel line, Laughing at chaos, passing the time. We say “real life first” and we mean it each time, But we still leave the lights on, a space to unwind. No pressure to prove, no price, no amount— Just be here, that’s what this is about. Break So if you’re quiet tonight, we’ll notice the sound, If you drift for a while, we’ll still be around. Final Chorus ’Cause the fear of missing out Isn’t ISK or the content drought, It’s missing the bond we’re building right now. It’s the check-in message, the “ping me anytime,” The comfort of knowing you’re not alone online. Yeah, the fear of missing out Isn’t the war we’re fighting out, It’s forgetting why we all stuck it out. We’re more than pilots passing through space unmounted— We’re a community, and that’s the fear of missing out. Outro So fly when you can, and rest when you must, The stars will still shine, and so will our trust. No leaderboard tracks what really counts— But we all know… That’s the fear of missing out.
