Selfie

I see the world in irony
It's hidden pain
We think we need fame but we don't see
It twist our brain
So we set the stage
And we embrace the cage
Younger and younger we craving viral expecting fame
Shallowing deeper in as we grow
Now we're losing like control
Now we're slaving to our phone
And it's let me down too many times before
There's something more one on one
The real feeling of soul

But look at how you smile now
I'd probably trade it for a frown
Cause it's leading me astray
All your feelings mis-conveyed
And how you smile now
When all you wanna do is frown
Oh comparing you to them
Only makes you feel distant

Say you're better than everyone like before
Now we know what really you're pursuing
Insecurities take us to new lows
This place we know it isn't all too far
We know what fame can do
I thought by now we knew
It's all façade and the notification rings so true
Rings so true in everything that we do
And losing out on the love sex drugs
What's the point

And look at how you smile now
When all you wanna do is frown
Cause it's leading me astray
All your feelings mis-conveyed
And how you smile now
When all you wanna do is frown ohh
Oh comparing you to them
Only makes you feel distant
