Kira Rae - Airplane Mode Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Scrolling through our memories at 3 AM
Your name lights up my screen again
I can't take another "hey, you there?"
When my soul's too tired to pretend
Your video call haunts my dreams
Those pixelated tears and screams

[Pre-Chorus]
One tap away from peace of mind
But guilt keeps holding down the line
Yeah, I know I'm being cruel
But baby, I ain't nobody's fool

[Chorus]
Airplane Mode, my new safe zone
Digital walls I've built alone
Don't need your love through fiber optic
This disconnection's my narcotic
Airplane Mode, sweet solitude
No notifications breaking through
Sometimes survival means goodbye
Even if it makes you cry

[Verse 2]
Remember that night in '19?
When my world crashed and you watched through a screen
Now every ping feels like a trigger
Every message makes my skin shiver
Your concern feels like invasion
Your love feels like suffocation

[Bridge]
Distance ain't measured in miles no more
It's counted in messages left ignored
They say connection saves, but what if it kills?
What if these waves make me mentally ill?
So I'll float in my bubble of static and peace
Where your digital touch can't reach

[Chorus]
Airplane Mode, my new safe zone
Digital walls I've built alone
Don't need your love through fiber optic
This disconnection's my narcotic
Airplane Mode, sweet solitude
No notifications breaking through
Sometimes survival means goodbye
Even if it makes you cry

[Outro]
In this lockdown of the heart and mind
I'm learning how to leave you behind
Your love's a virus I can't delete
So I'll just hit disable, incomplete
But complete in my solitude
Finally finding my own truth
In Airplane Mode, I'm finally free
From everything you meant to me
