Pixels Apart

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Chase keeps a second phone beneath his pillow Waiting for the little green dot to show Blah sends a selfie from a borrowed window And Chase forgets the laundry on the floor He knows the time zones, knows the typing rhythm Knows when three dots mean a story's on the way They trade bad jokes and carefully cropped feelings Then say goodnight and stay online all day [Pre-Chorus] No airport sign, no movie-scene parade Just two usernames refusing to be vague [Chorus] Chase is madly in love with Blah Heart on a screen but it still hits hard Two e-daters making promises in the dark Laughing through the distance, leaving fingerprints on hearts Chase is madly in love with Blah Every tiny message feels larger than it looks They may be pixels apart tonight But nobody reads him like Blah does [Verse 2] Blah calls Chase a disaster with a halo Chase calls Blah the coolest guy alive They argue which one of them would win at Mario Kart Then flirt until the battery hits five A shared playlist, matching profile pictures A calendar packed with calls they can't miss They send a virtual cake on birthdays And celebrate with a badly timed kiss [Pre-Chorus] No crowded bar, no stranger's hand to hold Just trust built slowly in a private scroll [Chorus] Chase is madly in love with Blah Heart on a screen but it still hits hard Two e-daters making promises in the dark Laughing through the distance, leaving fingerprints on hearts Chase is madly in love with Blah Every tiny message feels larger than it looks They may be pixels apart tonight But nobody reads him like Blah does [Bridge] Someday they'll meet beneath a station clock With nervous jokes and shoes that won't stop Blah will say, "You look exactly like your texts" Chase will say, "I saved this moment in my head" Until that day, the blue light stays Two stubborn hearts in separate places [Final Chorus] Chase is madly in love with Blah No distance gets to tell them who they are Two e-daters turning midnight into sparks Making something real from messages and open hearts Chase is madly in love with Blah Every little notification feels like luck They may be pixels apart tonight But nobody reads him like Blah does [Outro] Goodnight, Blah Goodnight, Chase Same blue screen Same happy place
