lyrics

I’m wearing weak
And motivation’s so hard to find
But the weather’s so clear outside
These clouds are in my mind

Feels like my life revolves around checking emails
I’m addicted to my new smartphone
How is it in this age where we’re all connected
I feel like we’re the most alone?

Maybe it’s time that I should step outside
And breathe the open air into my lungs
Just leave behind this laptop screen
and walk beneath the sun
The World Wide Web isn’t the wide world I should know
Outside these thin brick walls so I’ll
Shut down my Windows
And step out of my door

But once I get out there all I find
Are countless faces staring into pixels
Facebook, Twitter or Candy Crush
If we’re not searching for a signal

We’re a procrastination nation
Answering boredom with frustration
Wasting our precious time surfing online
While the real world loses our attention

Maybe it’s time that I should step outside
And breathe the open air into my lungs
Just leave behind this laptop screen
and walk beneath the sun
The World Wide Web isn’t the wide world I should know
Outside these thin brick walls so I’ll
Shut down my Windows
And step out of my door

Maybe it’s time that I should step outside
And breathe the open air into my lungs
Just leave behind this laptop screen
and walk beneath the sun
The World Wide Web isn’t the wide world I should know
Outside these thin brick walls so I’ll
Shut down my Windows
And step out of my door
