Lars Vemeer - Disconnect Request Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Screen-lit faces in the dark of night
Maya's pixels dance, but something's not right
Three dots appear, then fade away
I craft my words, know just what to say
Been six months since I felt real skin
These digital walls are closing in

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm scrolling through your feed again
Your perfectly curated pain
Each like's a calculated game
We're both just playing, playing

[Chorus]
Disconnect, disconnect
Your love's just zeroes and ones
Perfect selfies, perfect lies
Digital hearts come undone
I'm losing faith in what we've become
In this virtual asylum we run

[Verse 2]
Viktor's voice bleeds through my headphones
I twist his truth until it's my own
Maya, you're just data in the stream
Your tears on Zoom aren't what they seem
I've got you mapped out, every move
These algorithms help me prove

[Bridge]
F*ck these hollow notifications
Empty hearts and validations
Can't feel shit through fiber optics
God, we're all so f*cking toxic
Trapped behind these perfect filters
While our real lives just wither

[Chorus]
Disconnect, disconnect
Your love's just zeroes and ones
Perfect selfies, perfect lies
Digital hearts come undone
I'm losing faith in what we've become
In this virtual asylum we run

[Outro]
The screen goes black, and I'm alone
Surrounded by the light of phones
Maya, are you real at all?
Or just another protocol?
I press delete on everything
Watch our love crash and burn in binary spring
