[Verse 1]

How did I end up on my screen again?

Was it for a purpose or a happy distraction?

Can't seem to remember what I wanted then

Ha, then? That was like, five minutes ago

Still I'll swipe again, yeah, you know the trend

Lacking any semblance of a clear intention

My internal mechanism won't kick in

It's silly to be feeling so out of control


[Pre-Chorus]

This habit's haunting me, my state of mind reflects what I see

All tied up, infinitely loading, craving dopamine

The ground escapes my feet, no feelings felt if I scroll quickly

All dried up, empty cup devoid of personality


[Chorus]

Just one more and then I'll stop, just one more and thеn I'll stop

It's a part of me inside, I can't control, I can't turn off

Go away, leavе me alone, I don't wanna hear my thoughts

This is all I ever wanna do, I can't go back to


[Post-Chorus]

Life in color, reaching others

Can't seem to find the courage that I used to have for

Trying new things with no fear in failing

I'm putting all my energy and passion into


[Verse 2]

Doomscrolling, mindlessly consuming shit

Swipe away another day with no reaction

Expediting life for the thrill of it

​'cause it's fine, if I just avoid acknowledgement

So what? Maybe, I'm not missing anything

Could I even tell, if the world stopped turning?

Just look at the slop, there's no need to think

Who knows if my brain could ever re-sync


[Pre-Chorus]

This habit's haunting me, my state of mind reflects what I see

All tied up, infinitely loading, craving dopamine

The ground escapes my feet, no feelings felt if I scroll quickly

All dried up, empty cup devoid of personality


[Chorus]

Just one more and then I'll stop, just one more and then I'll stop

It's a part of me inside, I can't control, I can't turn off

Go away, leave me alone, I don't wanna hear my thoughts

This is all I ever wanna do, I can't go back to


[Post-Chorus]

Life in color, reaching others

Can't seem to find the courage that I used to have for

Trying new things with no fear in failing

I'm putting all my energy and passion into

Life on a screen

Can't tell what's really lurking

In the machine, but still

I swipe for feeling


[Bridge]

Not another, not another

My mind is blank, I can't recover

Not another, not another

My mind is blank, I can't recover

Not another, not another

My mind is blank, I can't recover

Not another, not another

My mind is blank, I can't recover


[Pre-Chorus]

Just one more and then I'll stop, just one more and then I'll stop

It's a part of me inside, I can't control, I can't turn off

Go away, leave me alone, I don't wanna hear my thoughts

This is all I ever wanna do anymore!


[Chorus]

Just one more and then I'll stop, just one more and then I'll stop

It's a part of me inside, I can't control, I can't turn off

Go away, leave me alone, I don't wanna hear my thoughts

This is all I ever wanna do, I can't go back to


[Post-Chorus]

Life in color, reaching others

Can't seem to find the courage that I used to have for

Trying new things, with no fear in failing

I'm putting all my energy and passion into

Life on a screen

Can't tell what's really lurking

In the machine, but still

I swipe for feeling


[Outro]

Life on a screen

Can't tell what's really lurking

In the machine, but still

I swipe for feeling
