I wanna turn my phone off But that's where all my friends are What do I do Why is it so hard To find someone new So far away Are the days That I used to have someone right beside me Now I confide in my phone screen It's tiring I just wanna feel something Lonely nights talking to pixels I don't go out Don't intermix with the crowd And I wonder why I'm sitting all alone Staring at my phone oh I just want a connection Is that so hard to ask for I just want something that's real, that's alive Don't want no white noise on the other line I just want a connection Is that so hard to ask for I just want something that's real, that's alive Don't want no phone static, phone static oh Phone static oh I'm tired of being by myself But it's better for my mental health I do not like anybody here So why do I care I tell myself That I just need to have someone right beside me Or else I'm nothing But for me I'd rather be alone Than with some people that I don't know Lonely nights talking to pixels I don't go out Don't intermix with the crowd And I wonder why I'm sitting all alone Staring at my phone oh I just want a connection Is that so hard to ask for I just want something that's real, that's alive Don't want no white noise on the other line I just want a connection Is that so hard to ask for I just want something that's real, that's alive Don't want no phone static, phone static oh Text messages on repeat Start to lose all feeling Where are the people for me Text messages on repeat Start to lose all feeling Where are the people for me Phone static, phone static oh Phone static, phone static Phone static, phone static oh Phone static, phone static
