While staring at screens
We lose the means
To observe the fact that we make our own scenes
I definitely get
That it makes you upset
Taking in this unnatural density yet
It's not just the teens
Or even the 'tweens
Robots of all ages walk like Zombeings
But don't forget
It's a filter you set
Resist it and it's resistance you'll get
So here's the truth
This world is uncouth
Being in it at times is pulling a tooth
Don't drop gaze to screen-in
It won't give you mean-in
That comes from relations so lift up that chin
And look around
Without defensive frown
You find security, even in this old town
Clogging up visual field
Deep security won't yield
Nor blasting music as an auditory shield
the deal is that we all need some quiet
if not the world can feel like a riot
like a neverending arms race don't try it
it can be hard to feel loved and secure
in a dog-eat-dog world I'm sure
but if you find the courage I tell you it's pure
we were made to love and cooperate
no matter how much the news spreads hate
may you find your true self and a way to feel great.
