[Verse 1]
I’ve got a hundred messages, likes, and comments too,
But when I need someone, where are you?
All these faces glowing on a tiny screen,
But none of them know what my silence means.

[Chorus]
I got the phoneliness blues, drowning in the light,
In a sea of signals, but I’m still out of sight.
Scrolling for a feeling that’s real and true,
But all I’m finding is phoneliness, and I’m missing you.

[Verse 2]
Every ping and buzz, feels like someone cares,
But it’s empty noise, just pixels in the air.
Lost in the hashtags and highlight reels,
Wishing for something I can feel.

[Chorus]
I got the phoneliness blues, drowning in the light,
In a sea of signals, but I’m still out of sight.
Scrolling for a feeling that’s real and true,
But all I’m finding is phoneliness, and I’m missing you.

[Bridge]
Maybe it’s time to put it down,
Look around this tired town.
In the silence, find the sound,
Of real voices, real hearts bound.

[Verse 3]
So I’ll turn it off, breathe the air,
Take a chance to meet you there.
For a touch, a word, a laugh that’s free,
Beyond the screen, just you and me.

[Final Chorus]
No more phoneliness blues, I’ll break away,
Find the warmth of faces, in a world that’s grey.
Trading notifications for something true,
Leaving phoneliness behind, I’m coming to you.

[Outro]
I’m coming to you, I’m coming to you,
Leaving phoneliness behind, I’m finding you.
