Mr Haynes - Life Looking at Screens Lyrics

I know it's sunrise, as the alarm goes off and the television's on
It's no surprise, the same thing happens to me every morning
The post arrives, the last time I got a letter written by hand was
1995, and now it's someone from Ebay sending something back
And I say

Who are you
Who are you

Cos there's a whole world outside and I'm not sure if I'm a part of it
Too busy looking inside, you know I'd like to be back where we first started

There was a time when I could play a record all of the way through
And then I'd lie on my bed in the dark and think about the future
Well now it's arrived, and things are moving with a speedy progression
My body thinks I'm hunting, which is why I'm stuck with a steady aggression

Cos there's a whole world outside and I'm not sure if I'm a part of it
Too busy looking inside, you know I'd like to be back where we first started
I have 97 friends but they're only online, I never see them
I'd like to say I know who I am but I'm always distracted and never being

Who are you
Who are you

Baby I'm so bored, sitting here waiting for the big reward
Baby I'm so tired, cos screens don't really get me inspired
Baby I'm so dumb, when I look at all the things I've become
Maybe I'll sit down, write a spreadsheet turn my life around

Sometimes I go onto websites just to look at pictures of solitary places
Chat to a hundred people a day, all I know is their names not their faces
Just like me they're sitting tied to their technological cages
I'm just waiting for a power cut, it'll be the best day I've had in ages
