Blackscreen://Breathing – Andrew Star Lyrics

I stare into the glow again

Blue light eating up my face

Time drips slow inside my chest

I forget what day this is

Every sound feels oversized

Every thought is too intense

I'm vibrating under skin

Like I'm not fully present

I keep scrolling for a feeling

Something warm, something true

But the screen keeps breathing back

And it looks a lot like you

I try to sleep but neon hums

Inside my bones, inside my blood

I'm not tired, I'm overloaded

I'm not broken, I'm just stuck

My reflection lags behind me

Half a second out of frame

When I smile it feels rehearsed

Like I borrowed someone's face

I talk fast to fill the silence

I laugh loud to hide the ache

Every moment feels recorded

Every breath a small mistake

Black screen breathing

Still alive somehow

Heart keeps beating

Even when I shut it down

Black screen breathing

Static in my lungs

I press restart

But nothing comes undone

I let the volume take control

Let it swallow all my fear

If I'm loud enough maybe

I'll finally disappear

I dance alone in flashing lights

Sweat and glitter on my skin

Every beat feels like a warning

Every drop a discipline

I feel euphoric, I feel empty

I feel both at the same time

Like a wire pulled too tight

Like a glitch inside a rhyme

My body moves before my mind

My mouth speaks before I think

I'm addicted to the chaos

To the edge right before I sink

If I crash don't pull me out

Let me see how far I go

There's a beauty in the damage

That the surface doesn't show

Black screen breathing

Still alive somehow

Heart keeps beating

Even when I shut it down

Black screen breathing

Flicker in the dark

I'm not lost

I'm just rebooting my heart

The noise fades into a whisper

Then into a pulse of air

I forget my name for seconds

But I don't feel scared

I feel lighter in the static

Like I slipped out of my skin

If this is what breaking feels like

Let it pull me deeper in

No signal

No color

No shape

No sound

Just breath

Just heat

Just now

I don't need to be corrected

I don't need to be saved

I don't need a clean restart

To justify the pain

I'm not perfect, I'm not stable

I'm not coded to be calm

But I'm real in every fracture

I'm alive in every flaw

Black screen breathing

Soft and slow tonight

Even in the darkness

Something keeps the light

Black screen breathing

I don't need control

If I fade

I fade whole

When the screen lights up again

I'm not who I was before

Not repaired

Not erased

Just more
