Blue light, faces in a row
Nobody says it, but everybody knows
Typing bubbles like a loaded gun
Everybody thinking, no one says what they want
Static in the walls, polite little lies
Digital smiles and invisible knives
I say one thing and the whole room shifts
Guess I’m the one they talk about after this

Everybody’s careful, walking the wire
Say what you mean and you’re playing with fire

How am I the only Masshole in this group chat?
Everybody watching but they don’t react
Say it too straight and you’re off the map
How am I the only Masshole in this group chat?
You can hear a pin drop after I speak
Truth sounds loud when the room’s that weak
If being real makes me the bad guy
I’ll be the bad guy every night

Glass rooms, shadows on a screen
Everybody’s nicer than they really mean
Echo chamber, velvet gloves
Quiet little wars dressed up as love
You can feel the tension through the phone
Nobody wants to stand alone
So we all play dumb, we all play nice
And crucify the first one who doesn’t think twice

Everybody’s watching, nobody moves
Say what you think and you make the news

Maybe I’m wrong
Maybe I’m loud
Maybe I don’t know how to tone it down
Maybe this room
Runs on pretend
Maybe I just don’t know how to bend
You don’t hate me
You hate what I said
The quiet part out of all of our heads

How am I the only Masshole in this group chat?
Everybody smiling like a photograph
Say one wrong word and it all goes black
How am I the only Masshole in this group chat?
If silence is safety, I’m never safe
If truth is a problem, I’m wide awake
If being real makes me the bad guy
I’ll be the bad guy my whole life

Say it out loud, say it and run
Truth don’t make friends with anyone
Say it out loud, say it and run
Truth don’t make friends with anyone
