In 2026, we’ve managed to do something pretty strange with social media: real people sometimes seem outnumbered by virtual ones. Fake profiles, fabricated identities, AI, people hiding behind a mask... the risk of forming a connection with someone who isn’t really who you think they are is becoming greater and greater. ㅤ This song is about that, but more importantly, about what it means for us: in a world like this, maintaining emotional stability may have become one of the most important skills we can have. ㅤ I dedicate this song to someone this happened to recently. He’ll know who he is. ㅤ ============================ ㅤ [VERSE] You'd leave a comment underneath my songs Then we'd keep talking after everyone was gone You knew the little things I'd never share After a while I thought you really cared ㅤ [CHORUS] Who was I talking to every night? Who made a stranger feel so right? Who was I talking to every night? And why did you know me better than I liked? ㅤ [VERSE] You'd ask me how the things I'd planned had gone Remember every story months beyond You made me laugh when everything went wrong Somehow a message turned into a bond ㅤ [CHORUS] Who was I talking to every night? Who made a stranger feel so right? Who was I talking to every night? And why did you know me better than I liked? ㅤ [VERSE] Then one night I saw your face again Different name beneath it, different friends Hundreds of profiles made to talk like you And that's when I learned there was never a you ㅤ [CHORUS] Who was I talking to every night? I won't mourn someone who was never alive Who was I talking to every night? I'll keep what I felt, you've got nowhere to hide Who was I talking to every night? Next time I'll make sure there's someone on the other sidemore
