I stare into the dead screen

And wonder what has it done for me

Now we care about the brand of cream

That we wear or what people will see

It is bad for them to see the real you

Instead of the person society has created

It would help if you knew

We have all been segregated

You hate to concede

You hate to realize

That we can no longer dream

Because there is no imagination to help us visualize

Imagine it, a perfect world

Where people spoke face to face

Where the truth can easily be unfurled

We are living in a dead place

Everyone is staring at a phone

We no longer want to leave our house

WE don't know that we are really alone

Throw your entire life away in just one click of a mouse

Technology rules us

We no longer can think

Our feelings we no longer can express

It hurts our eyes to merely blink

What we do is controlled

By some measly little sign

That is unfeeling and cold

We are slaves to the world called online

We fill our conversations

Our daily lives

With stupid abbreviations

That will never keep you alive

You sound stupid and dumb

Silly and idiotic

Every time the Internet helps you forget where you come from

You become more robotic

So look away

And step away from the phone

Take a look outside at the day

Don't live your life all alone

The world is a secret

Just waiting for you to unravel

Its up to you to see where it leads

And feel your feet touch the gravel

But you can't do this

If you're locked up in your room

You can't experience this pure bliss

So save your self from the evitable doom
