DON'T GO DARK

[Verse 1] you left me on read but it still feels like talking my phone in my palm like a pulse that’s not stopping I replay your silence like it means something like maybe you’re typing, like maybe I’m nothing I check when you last were even online like that could explain why my ribs don’t align I swear I can hear you inside of the static saying my name in a tone that’s automatic [Pre-Chorus] I’m fine I’m fine I’m fine I— Hate the way you look at me Hate the way that you can see Hate this feeling in my mind Hate this shadow stitched to my spine [Chorus] don’t go dark don’t go dark don’t go dark on me I can’t tell if I miss you or if I can’t breathe you’re a notification stuck in my skin every time I calm down you pull me in don’t go dark don’t go dark don’t disconnect I refresh your absence like it's a reflex I don’t need closure I need your reply I’m only okay when you’re online [Verse 2] I made a shrine out of old conversation timestamps glowing like a medication I scroll through the parts where you almost cared like maybe you’re still kinda there my thoughts keep buffering, skipping frames your face keeps glitching into my name I laugh and it sounds like a system error like I’m not even fully together [Pre-Chorus] I’m fine I’m fine I’m fine I— Think I heard you on the phone Think I saw you in the light of my screen or maybe I just don’t know what’s real in me [Chorus] don’t go dark don’t go dark don’t go dark on me I can’t tell if I miss you or if I can’t breathe you’re a notification stuck in my skin every time I calm down you pull me in don’t go dark don’t go dark don’t disconnect I refresh your absence like it’s a reflex I don’t need closure I need your reply I’m only okay when you’re online [Outro] You’re typing you’re typing you’re typing you’re typing you’re typing...
