Cold screen glow, no face to see
Empty room, just shadows and me
Talk to the walls, they don’t reply
Chasing echoes, they slip and die

I scream, I shout, no sound comes out
The silence wraps, it ties me down

Alone in the static, drowning in noise
Crowded by silence, stolen my voice
Empty, it echoes, a hollowed-out tone
Lost in the static, I’m all on my own

Clock hands crawl, the hours don’t care
Time moves slow, but I’m stuck nowhere
Phone lights blink, ghosts on my line
Scrolling through nothing, losing my mind

I reach, I grab, but there’s no hand
A sinking ship in desert sand

Alone in the static, drowning in noise
Crowded by silence, stolen my voice
Empty, it echoes, a hollowed-out tone
Lost in the static, I’m all on my own
