Detachment

Walking down the street
Oh, so many people to meet
Phones in their hands
They don't know where they stand
Headphones over their ears
Acting like no one is near
Eyes never look up at the sky
Everyone is shy
Preoccupied with their own lives
"Keep moving foreword", they say
Never behind
You make fun of them
Oh, child you're one of them
