Intro
Front camera on, chin high Blue light soft on the left side If I hold still, it almost looks fine
Verse 1
Golden hour through the window frame Half-drunk iced coffee, staged and clean Posted “slow day :)” With the sink full out of scene Publix bag by the stove, one shoe in the hall I cropped out the pill bottle leaned by the wall Three takes, then I picked the one Where my eyes looked bright enough to fool someone
Pre-chorus
Tap, tap, little red heart Tiny fireworks in the dark Battery three percent, still I keep the smile if I sit real still
Chorus
Still posting Like the room don’t know me Face lit up, house going dim I learned how to smile with my camera flipped Still posting While the night stays open If it looks good, maybe I don’t sink Watch me go live from the edge of the sink Still posting
Verse 2
2:14 on the lockscreen glow Read receipts on, but I don’t wanna know Buzz-buzz on the marble top Every new name makes the ceiling stop Little hit every time they react Like maybe I exist if the screen says that Thumb shake, refresh, refresh Lip gloss on over a held-in breath
Pre-chorus 2
Tap, tap, little machine Tell me I’m more than what I mean One more pose, one more spin Noise outside, quiet within
Chorus
Still posting Like the room don’t know me Face lit up, house going dim I learned how to smile with my camera flipped Still posting While the night stays open If it looks good, maybe I don’t sink Watch me go live from the edge of the sink Still posting
Verse 3
Offline, the apartment hums AC drone and the fridge kicks once No shoes on, tile-floor cold TV light flickers blue and old Mom called twice, I let it ring Couldn’t fake my voice through anything Screenshot smile from earlier on Whole room dark when the flash was gone
Verse 4
Mascara at the seam-line breaks Filter slips when the handshake shakes One tear line I forgot to blur Comment says “u good?” under the third I type “lol yeah” then delete, then stare My own face lagging in the front-cam glare That was the first night it showed through Pretty can crack in a pixel too
Bridge
If I put “help” in a pretty font Would it still look like content? If I say “nothing’s wrong” again Will my mouth start to believe it? I don’t know how to be seen Without editing what it did to me
Verse 5
Morning comes like a silent scroll Sun through dust on the cereal bowl Same mirror, same soft pose Same caption nobody really knows Outside, traffic, somebody laughs Inside, drafts and a shower running half New post up, hair tied back Smile melting slow at the edges black
Chorus
Still posting. Even with the cracks showing. Front cam on, kitchen going gray. I make it look light while it frays all day. Still posting Till the frame stops holding If I go quiet, the feed might blink So I go live from the edge of the sink Still posting
Outro
No more swipe No more light Front camera dies
Inside the recording
Front camera on, chin high Blue light soft on the left side
Tap, tap, little red heart Tiny fireworks in the dark
No more swipe No more light
