Internet Broke Me

How many filtered posts can we make
Before we see there's a problem
How many people do we meet
But don't really know them

How many fake smiles can we put on screens
For audiences that don't know what they mean
We are living all our lives on one constant stream
And convince ourselves that we are living the dream life

And I manage to join in on the trend
And I just seem to want it to end

The internet broke me
I'm living my life through a screen
Scrolling past things I shouldn't see
Reaching places that I've never been
Oh, I've lost my sanity
But I need it so I can fit in
Can somebody help me
'Cus I think it broke me, yeah

How can we look past all the misfortunes
With no feeling
How can we claim we should help
But we don't mean it

How many years do you think it will take
Before something happens, or some changes are made
Until one ripple causes a crash in the wave
And somehow force ourselves to live in real life

And I hope I can join in on the change
Oh I hope I can stop this someday

The internet broke me
I'm living my life through a screen
Scrolling past things I shouldn't see
Reaching places that I've never been
Oh, I've lost my sanity
But I need it so I can fit in
Can somebody help me
'Cus I think it broke me, yeah

And don't get me wrong, it can be great
Changes keep happening, don't need to wait
I have learned things that I wouldn't know
And so without it I wouldn't have grown
But with all this, I should say
I take caution everyday
Because as much as I love it, this thing can be toxic
And it's breaking me
I think it broke me

The internet broke me
I'm living my life through a screen
Scrolling past things I shouldn't see
Reaching places that I've never been
Oh, I've lost my sanity
But I need it so I can fit in
Can somebody help me
'Cus I think it broke me, yeah

The internet broke me
I'm living my life through a screen
Scrolling past things I shouldn't see
Reaching places that I've never been
Oh, I've lost my sanity
But I need it so I can fit in
Can somebody help me
'Cus I think it broke me, yeah
