One More Scroll

One more scroll Then I sleep Mmm Said that at midnight It's almost three Lights off, phone up, face in the glow One more scroll and I'll let it go Said it at twelve, said it at one Thumb keeps moving like it's getting things done Somebody's wedding, somebody's war Somebody's abs and a discount store A cat, a crash, a kid in the rain Grief and a giveaway share the same frame I'm tired But I'm wired It can wait But it won't I could stop But the feed says don't One more scroll One more scroll One more scroll Then I sleep, I swear Lights go low Eyes go wide I'm still here On the other side The feed don't end The feed don't end The feed don't end It was built to hold Everyone's thriving at 3 a.m Beaches and babies and brand-new starts I'm in the dark going thumb over thumb Borrowing lives like library cards Funeral, meme, mortgage, scheme War zone, skincare, royalty, tea Some little voice says none of this is free Swipe, recommended: songs for sleep Pull to refresh like a slot machine arm Cherries of nothing, but I stay for the spin Searched one fear at a quarter to two Now every advert's got the cure I'm not hooked I'm just held It's not love But it knows me well One more scroll One more scroll One more scroll Then I sleep, I swear Lights go low Eyes go wide I'm still here On the other side The feed don't end The feed don't end The feed don't end It was built to hold Maybe I'm not addicted Maybe I'm just avoiding The face in the screen When the screen stops glowing 'Cause the feed goes quiet And the dark gets wide And it's just me here With the rest of my life One more One more One more scroll One more scroll One more scroll Then I sleep, I swear Lights go low Eyes go wide I'm still here On the other side The feed don't end The feed don't end The feed don't end It was built to hold One more scroll One more scroll One more scroll I don't even read One more scroll Eyes go wide Now the city's watching me The feed don't end The feed don't end The feed don't end
