Lyrics
It's so strange, don't ya think
Expressing a sense of peculiarity or unfamiliarity.
I know more about you from
Acknowledging a reliance on digital information to understand someone.
Digital images and I
Highlighting the limited nature of interaction through digital images.
Interact with you each day
Emphasizing regular interaction despite physical distance through technology.
What a world, what a world
Reflecting on the complexity and uniqueness of the digital world.
From behind a screen, I've much to say
Expressing a comfort in communicating from behind a screen.
Formulating words in person
Acknowledging challenges in verbal communication in person.
Isn't so easy
Stating the difficulty in expressing thoughts face-to-face.
We'd never know it
Suggesting that the challenges in personal communication may be unnoticed.
But we're good for each other
Claiming a positive influence on each other despite communication challenges.
At least I think so
Expressing a personal belief in the mutual benefit of the relationship.
Curse your pixelated smile
Cursing the artificial or digital representation of a smile.
And you should know
Asserting the importance of the listener understanding the impact.
You make my wasted time worthwhile
Recognizing the value found in spending time, even if seemingly wasted.
Far apart but you're here everyday
Highlighting the emotional presence of someone despite physical distance.
And when you go offline
Expressing a sense of emptiness or longing when the person is not online.
That really gets to me
Indicating a strong emotional response to the person going offline.
I've wasted the day away
Regretting the perceived waste of time spent without the person online.
In a room with my eyes glued
Describing a state of being absorbed in a room, possibly due to digital engagement.
Am I okay
Questioning one's emotional state and well-being.
I just have to ask myself
Acknowledging self-reflection on the impact of digital interactions.
Maybe someday
Expressing a hope for a different, possibly more personal, future interaction.
To you this anecdote I'll tell
Hinting at the possibility of sharing a personal story or experience in the future.
