Blue glow on my skin
Four a.m. again
Tabs like tiny doorways
All of them the same
Cursor like a compass
Spinning in my hand
Tracing little circles
Over wasted plans
You’re my no-life navigator
Keeping me lost
Keeping me later
Every dead end
Every detour
You redraw the map
Make it seem sure
No-life navigator
Tell me what to chase
What to savor
Scroll me under
Scroll me over
Never getting closer (to sober)
Cheap food on the desktop
Warm can
Going flat
Friends’ names in a group chat
I don’t click on that
You feed me one more window
“Maybe this will fix the ache”
Another tiny promise
Another night you take
You’re my no-life navigator
Keeping me numb
Keeping me safer
Every new link
Every rumor
You rewrite the truth
Sell me the rumor
No-life navigator
Teaching me to drift
Not to waver
Scroll me under
Scroll me over
Never getting closer (to sober)
Was there a road
Before this maze?
Did I choose you
Or did you phase me in?
If I unplug
Will I still know my name
Or just the username
You gave me? (hey)
You’re my no-life navigator
Leading me nowhere
Just later
Every near miss
Every almost
You turn back the wheel
Haunt me like a ghost
No-life navigator
Whisper “stay a little bit later”
Scroll me under
Scroll me over
Never getting closer (never getting closer)
