The timeline’s shining way too bright
Everyone looks like they got it right
Every time my phone lights up
My heart gets small, I’m not enough
Wore other people’s “likes” on me
Forgot what I was meant to be
Inside my headphones late at night
My real voice hiding out of sight
So I pressed the button, just to breathe
Let the noisy world move out of reach
Noise cancellation
I finally hear my name
Don’t have to be perfect
Don’t have to play their game
Noise cancellation
No need to compare
Just being here is
More than enough, I swear
They talk about the future light
Like answers come with every swipe
I typed my dreams into the bar
No search could tell me who we are
I tried to fit in “normal” shoes
But normal’s something hard to choose
Behind the smiling avatar
We’re all just wondering who we are
So I pressed the button, just to breathe
Let the noisy world move out of reach
Noise cancellation
I finally hear my name
Don’t have to be perfect
Don’t have to play their game
Noise cancellation
No need to compare
Just being here is
More than enough, I swear
Scrolling through a borrowed sky
Counting stars that aren’t even mine
Echoes telling me to chase
Somebody else’s finish line
Turn the volume way down low
Let the real me start to glow
Underneath the crowded sound
There’s a heart I never found
Noise cancellation
It’s okay to be behind
I’m not getting lost
I’m right here, still in line
Noise cancellation
No need to be “right”
Just being myself
Is more than enough tonight
Noise cancellation
I finally hear my name
Don’t have to be perfect
Don’t have to play their game
Noise cancellation
No need to compare
Just being here is
More than enough, I swear
Noise cancellation
