Background Noise 2:47

VERSE 1

Everybody's bleeding online
Clean cuts, perfect timing
Say it hurt, say it first
If you're quiet, you're behind

Room's on fire, point and shout
Sell the fear, buy the doubt
Someone screams "this is violence"
Someone's counting bodies out

PRE-CHORUS

I look for the exits
They move every time
Every word's a siren
Every loss is mine

CHORUS

We're screaming about being silenced
Into mics that won't shut off
Every feeling's a headline
Every bruise is a prop
If the alarm never stops
It's just background noise
We don't want it fixed
We just want a voice

VERSE 2

Pick a side, pick a wound
Show me who to blame it on
Truth gets thin, facts get heavy
Feelings win, story's gone

Lose the plot, win the fight
Call it justice, call it right
If I lost, it was rigged
If I'm wrong, it's not tonight

PRE-CHORUS

Every rule's a setup
Every loss is war
If you don't agree with me
You're a threat, nothing more

CHORUS

We're screaming about being silenced
Into mics that won't shut off
Every feeling's a headline
Every bruise is a prop
If the alarm never stops
It's just background noise
We don't want it fixed
We just want a voice

BRIDGE — HALF-TIME, THEN KICK

When did danger turn into a vibe
When did discomfort testify
If everything's a crisis
Nothing ever is
We traded judgment for adrenaline
And called it honesty

BREAKDOWN — SHOUTED

Heal and the story ends
Stay hurt, stay relevant
No off-ramp, no rewind
Just refresh, refresh, refresh

FINAL CHORUS

We're screaming about being silenced
Into mics that won't shut off
Every feeling's a headline
Every bruise is a prop
If the alarm never stops
It's just background noise
We don't want it fixed
We just want a voice

OUTRO

They say the system's broken
I think it's working fine
It runs on our reactions
Every time
