Nothing Behind the Screen (New Day Mix) (Suno Exclusive)

[Intro] [Verse 1] There’s a man on the television With a hole where his future should be He was looking for the grand design Found a mirror staring back at me He said the world was a projection Just a fever in the human brain Then he stepped outside the picture And they never saw his face again [Pre-Chorus] Twelve hours in a dead-end dream Somewhere underneath the machine If there’s a god behind the glass He’s got better things to do than ask [Chorus] There’s nothing behind the screen Nothing like you thought it’d be Just a million little tragedies Running on a dying battery And if I found the master key Would it mean a thing to me? I’d still wake up, I’d still get old Still die before I ever know There’s nothing behind the screen Or nothing that I haven’t seen [Verse 2] I watched the future on a rental tape A blue-lit room and a simulated face The satellite was spinning overhead While the living room filled up with the dead Everybody wants to know the answer Everybody wants to beat the game But the universe don’t give out prizes And the stars don’t even know your name [Pre-Chorus] I saw the numbers in the falling rain Saw my reflection glitch and change If this is all a beautiful mistake Why’s it such a boring thing to wake? [Chorus] There’s nothing behind the screen Nothing like you thought it’d be Just a million little tragedies Running on a dying battery And if I found the master key Would it mean a thing to me? I’d still wake up, I’d still get old Still die before I ever know There’s nothing behind the screen Or nothing that I haven’t seen [Bridge] Maybe we’re just information Drifting through a vacant room Maybe consciousness is static Maybe everything’s a cartoon Maybe someone pulled the plug Maybe nobody ever cared Maybe all the doors are open And there’s nothing waiting there I don’t wanna be awakened I don’t wanna be asleep I just wanna stop pretending That there’s something here to keep [Verse 3] Now the laboratory’s empty And the files have disappeared There’s a message in the static But the words won’t come out clear All the talking heads are smiling Saying everything’s okay While the world reloads around us And we go back to our day [Final Chorus] There’s nothing behind the screen Nothing like you thought it’d be Just a million little tragedies Dressed up like a fantasy And if I found the master key Would it set the whole world free? Or would I watch the sun go black And wish that I could take it back? There’s nothing behind the screen There’s nothing waiting underneath [Outro] Turn it off Let it fade All the promises we made Let it run Let it break Let the whole damn picture shake I was looking for a reason I was looking for a sign Now I’m staring at the ceiling Watching nothing turn to light Nothing turns to light Nothing turns to light
