Headphones Lyrics - White Lantern & Matthew Coker
From the lights up to a 2 AM glow
Another voice telling me what I should know
Play it loud, don't leave a gap
If it gets quiet, my mind fights back
Breath gets short, heart won't slow
Scrolling just to feel in control
I press play like a panic button
Anything to keep it running
If I hear my own thoughts
I don't know what they're becoming
The static in my headphones
Even when the song feels right
I'm screaming through the white noise
Trying to outrun my mind
If I turn it down
I'm scared of what I'll find
The static in my headphones
Running louder every night
Podcast preacher, lo-fi beat
Another voice sitting next to me
Laugh track, news, another song
Just don't let the silence on
I stack the sound like walls of glass
But every echo cracks
I keep my head underwater
Just to avoid the quiet
But the deeper that I go
The harder it is to fight it
The static in my headphones
Even when the song feels right
I'm screaming through the white noise
Trying to outrun my mind
If I turn it down
I'm scared of what I'll find
The static in my headphones
Running louder every night
What happens when the noise stops?
When there's nowhere left to hide
Is it just me in the silence?
Or are you on the other side?
I don't know how to listen
Without running from the sound
But if you're in the quiet
Don't let me miss you now
The static in my headphones
But I don't wanna live this way
If I lay down the white noise
Will you teach my heart to stay?
I don't need another song
To keep my fear in line
I'm taking off my headphones
Meet me in the quiet
Meet me in the quiet
Even if I'm terrified
