I wrote this track about the pain of digital breakup. It’s late-night scrolling on your phone, watching old stories of your ex that make you hurt. 😞 

[Verse 1]
Thumb on the screen, midnight feed bleeds, your stories loop like a curse I need
Frozen frames of your laugh, replayed, shadows of what we never conveyed
Notifications haunt like a siren’s call, pulling me back to the endless fall
One more peek, then I’ll break the thrall—but the scroll won’t stall
[Pre-Chorus]
Mind’s a mirror, cracking clear, whispers turn to the fear
Can’t log off, heart’s adrift—obsessed with the rift
[Chorus]
Obsidian loop, spiraling through the nights we lose
Echoes of you in the blue light bruise, no excuse
Falsetto trapped in the unread queue, where the silence screws
Chasing ghosts in the view—obsidian loop, me and you
Ooh-ooh, yeah
[Verse 2]
Stories expire but the ache renews, your silhouette in the stories I choose
DM drafts like a noose I compose, words unspoken, overdose
Pixel prison, bars of your glow, every refresh a deeper low
Haunted by the what-ifs we sow—can’t let go, don’t you know
[Pre-Chorus]
Fingers trace the fracture line, time’s a thief in disguise
Your absence amplifies, hypnotize—lost in the lies
[Chorus]
Obsidian loop, spiraling through the nights we lose
Echoes of you in the blue light bruise, no excuse
Falsetto trapped in the unread queue, where the silence screws
Chasing ghosts in the view—obsidian loop, me and you
Ooh-ooh, yeah
[Bridge]
Oh, if the app could delete the scar
I’d swipe left on this broken star…
But the pull reboots, absolute—loop me in, compute!
[Rap Outro]
Yo, feeds flood like a venom vein, chain reaction in the brain
Stalking shadows through the dopamine rain, pain after pain, insane
Heart’s a cache full of cached regret, connect and disconnect, sweat
Phantom likes in the dead of night—obsidian fight, ignite the spite
Falsetto fades in the static storm, more and more till the norm deforms
Ooh-ooh, yeah—break the scroll, but the hole won’t close
