[Verse 1]

We traced the world through a glowing screen,

Dreamed of city lights and cobblestone streets.

Laughed 'til sunrise, made our grand escape—

Germany, someday, neighbors across the way.

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I thought we had the universe,

A place where nothing hurt—

But the signal dropped, and you slipped away.

[Chorus]

Why, why, why?

The words catch in my throat,

Like a message left unsent,

Like a call that won't connect.

Why, why, why?

The silence feels so loud,

And I dream of the day

I could say what I never had the time to say.

[Verse 2]

I played the matchmaker, set you up just right,

Watched you fall in love on a Discord night.

We kept each other safe, through every storm,

How do I comfort them now that you're gone?

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I thought we had the universe,

A place where nothing hurt—

But the signal dropped, and you slipped away.

[Chorus]

Why, why, why?

The words catch in my throat,

Like a message left unsent,

Like a call that won't connect.

Why, why, why?

The silence feels so loud,

And I dream of the day

I could say what I never had the time to say.

[Verse 3]

Typing and deleting, I just don't know—

Your name still lingers in the status glow.

Our group chat still feels like home,

But it's missing you, and we all know.

[Pre-Chorus 3]

I thought we had the universe,

A place where nothing hurt—

But the signal dropped, and you slipped away.

[Chorus]

Why, why, why?

The words catch in my throat,

Like a message left unsent,

Like a call that won't connect.

Why, why, why?

The silence feels so loud,

And I dream of the day

I could say what I never had the time to say.

[Bridge]

If I could send a message through the stars,

Would you hear it, would you know?

Or would it vanish like the past—

A whisper lost in radio snow?

[Finale]

I thought we had the universe...

A place where nothing hurt.

But the signal dropped, and you slipped away.

And I dream of the day

I could say what I never had the time to say.

This is more correct since we had an
online friendship; but the other version
is more how i always saw everything whenever
"dozing off" i guess?

I miss you.
