My thoughts on social media. Enjoy, E- Everybody wants a way out Nobody wants to die alone So we learned to bleed in public Just to feel like we were known She cried into the dashboard light Uploaded tears before they dried Caption read “I’m healing now” Strangers told her they were proud He wears his sadness like cologne Split pink gums and nicotine lungs Every scar gets photographed Every breakdown cut in half Stay awake Stay online Trade your pulse For dopamine highs Hold still Don’t think twice Your whole worth Lives online We turn our trauma into staged goodbyes Make it pretty for the lonely nights Everybody wants another life Nobody survives the night Pray to the glow of a dead blue screen Spit your guts into a dopamine feed If being broken keeps the numbers high We’ll bleed forever just to stay alive I watched my friends become fake names Perfect teeth and hollow veins Learning how to disappear Just to keep somebody near Every post another prayer “Tell me somebody still cares” Every comment feels like God Till the silence breaks my jaw Stay soft Stay numb Keep singing What they want Don’t unplug Don’t look down Every prayer Feels hollow now We turn our trauma into staged goodbyes Make it pretty for the lonely nights Everybody wants another life Nobody survives the night Pray to the glow of a dead blue screen Spit your guts into a dopamine feed If being broken keeps the numbers high We’ll bleed forever just to stay alive Tell me who I am without the noise Without the pills, the trends, the voice Every room feels colder now Every prayer feels hollow now I scream until my lungs give out Just to drown the silence out But the quiet always comes Plastic halos Hospital eyes Everybody’s famous Everybody lies Perfect bodies Rotting brains We gave our hearts To the machine We sold our sadness for a better view Now every memory comes stitched and used Everybody begs to feel desired Pray to the glow of a dead blue screen Spit your guts into a dopamine feed If nobody knows what truth became Then lies become the faith Everybody wants a way out Nobody wants to die alone So we learned to bleed in public Just to feel like we were knownmore
