Streets We Once Called Home

Through a screen, we are seeing Through our fingers, we are speaking The sun outside is blinding, burning lines into my floor That's not the light we get to see anymore And in this house, everything's buzzing Never ending, keeps us running No need to lift a finger unless it's headed for your mouth Post some pictures of your food for friends to talk about Some days I can only shake my head Ring my hands and walk away From everything that they've shoved down my throat Climb up through the fire escape To the roof far above cyberspace Lie on my back and pray for rain And take a moment to imagine the rain to flood these waters All these roads that take us nowhere are nowhere we'll ever know An existensial revolution All these bodies now are flying Above these city streets we once called home And it's a net, that catches nothing In our inbox out the other... box No need to feel your feelings, you can post them on your wall Self reflection doesn't count if noone knows about it And ups and downs are just for loading Don't ever dream it when you can stream it? A world that's wide and infinite is all we ever want But we'd have to leave the house and that's way too fucking hard! Take a moment to imagine the rain to flood these waters All these roads that take us nowhere are nowhere we'll ever know An existensial revolution All these bodies now are flying Above these city streets we once called home We once called home Some days I can only shake my head Ring my hands and walk away From the things that they've shoved down my throat Climb up through the fire escape To the roof far above cyberspace Lie on my back And pray for rain
