Screens (Radio Edit)
Time ticks by as you stare at the blue light
You've been doing it all day, it's slipping into night
Scrolling through everything you want in this life
But you know it's never coming from a 9 until 5
The brand new house, the cars on the drive
Don't mean it's perfect inside
It's losing its way
The purpose has gone
It started off good now it's being used wrong
Take a break, step away from the screen
No filters to change what you see
The illusion of choice through the trends and the themes
Takes away your moment in time
Have you ever been out just to dance in the rai
Making memories that just can't be saved
Take a break from modernity to truly escape
This insanity, the profanities and the vanity
Don't let it become, your reality
You go from talking to your friends, without leaving your room
To naming places you wanna see
And things that you all want to do
Don't worry about the reaction, the attraction
And the need to gain likes
But the affection, the connection
To those in your life
Be who you wanna be not the person that they want to see
And it's loosing its way
The purpose has gone
It started off good now it's being used wrong
Take a break, step away from the screen
No filters to change what you see
The illusion of choice through the trends and the themes
Takes away your moment in time
Have you ever been out just to dance in the rain
Making memories that just can't be saved
Take a break from modernity to truly escape
This insanity, the profanities and the vanity
Don't let it become
Your reality, your reality
Have you ever been out just to dance in the rain
You've been doing it all day, it's slipping into night
Scrolling through everything you want in this life
But you know it's never coming from a 9 until 5
The brand new house, the cars on the drive
Don't mean it's perfect inside
It's losing its way
The purpose has gone
It started off good now it's being used wrong
Take a break, step away from the screen
No filters to change what you see
The illusion of choice through the trends and the themes
Takes away your moment in time
Have you ever been out just to dance in the rai
Making memories that just can't be saved
Take a break from modernity to truly escape
This insanity, the profanities and the vanity
Don't let it become, your reality
You go from talking to your friends, without leaving your room
To naming places you wanna see
And things that you all want to do
Don't worry about the reaction, the attraction
And the need to gain likes
But the affection, the connection
To those in your life
Be who you wanna be not the person that they want to see
And it's loosing its way
The purpose has gone
It started off good now it's being used wrong
Take a break, step away from the screen
No filters to change what you see
The illusion of choice through the trends and the themes
Takes away your moment in time
Have you ever been out just to dance in the rain
Making memories that just can't be saved
Take a break from modernity to truly escape
This insanity, the profanities and the vanity
Don't let it become
Your reality, your reality
Have you ever been out just to dance in the rain
