I asked myself tonight… Am I lost, or am I a ghost? Walking through these city lights that don’t feel like home no more. People talk with typing hands, not eyes, not hearts, not truth. Everyone’s locked inside a phone, and I got no one to talk to. Feels like the world’s on mute, every soul on flight mode— And I’m just standing here with a heart that’s stuck on loud. I’m a ghost in the crowd, fading out, fading out— Searching for love in a world where love is just a filter now. I’m a heartbeat too real for a world that’s shut down— Tell me, who do I trust when every “love” is just online and nothing’s real… nothing’s real anymore? I tried finding love online, but every “forever” breaks by dawn. Sweet words come and go like lies, leaving echoes when they’re gone. Feels like everyone’s controlled by a world inside their screens— And I’m the only one left here still searching for something clean. I’m a ghost in the crowd, fading out, fading out— Searching for love in a world where love is just a filter now. I’m a heartbeat too real for a world that’s shut down— Tell me, who do I trust when every “love” is just online and nothing’s real… nothing’s real anymore?

Ghost in the Crowd 👻🌕
I asked myself tonight… Am I lost, or am I a ghost? Walking through these city lights that don’t feel like home no more. People talk with typing hands, not eyes, not hearts, not truth. Everyone’s locked inside a phone, and I got no one to talk to. Feels like the world’s on mute, every soul on flight mode— And I’m just standing here with a heart that’s stuck on loud. I’m a ghost in the crowd, fading out, fading out— Searching for love in a world where love is just a filter now. I’m a heartbeat too real for a world that’s shut down— Tell me, who do I trust when every “love” is just online and nothing’s real… nothing’s real anymore? I tried finding love online, but every “forever” breaks by dawn. Sweet words come and go like lies, leaving echoes when they’re gone. Feels like everyone’s controlled by a world inside their screens— And I’m the only one left here still searching for something clean. I’m a ghost in the crowd, fading out, fading out— Searching for love in a world where love is just a filter now. I’m a heartbeat too real for a world that’s shut down— Tell me, who do I trust when every “love” is just online and nothing’s real… nothing’s real anymore?
