about

A view on the world and peoples dependency on Mobile phones and computers to communicate - and how face to face communication is suffering.

lyrics

I look the screen to see if you’re there
I wanted to talk I wanted to learn
I hoped we could chat if just for a while
And talk about stuff that we’re feeling
The signal is strong but you’re not at home
Not even online with your brand new iphone
Oh I’m sinking with this feeling
Needing...

I email a note to ask if you’re there
I write something short to avoid the joke
I keep to the point to try to resolve
A discussion we had last Tuesday
I’m careful to choose the words that I write
So mindful of dangers of misunderstanding
Words can have double edged meanings
Hurt feelings

I look to Skype – you’re not connected
The whistle on my whatsapp is silent
I’m trying to reach out, tell you something
I’m disconnected and alone



I log on Facebook and catch up with friends
They all seem to be better than me
Exciting young lives with plenty to tell
It makes me feel like I am so boring
I twitter a post about my dull day
It enters the world of electric dual life
Oh I’m struggling with this feeling
Of needing

I reach to sky and feel the sunshine
I look to the trees and hear the birds
I’ve become wasted in a new life
I’ve been consumed in all the whirl

I’m Uncommunicated
Feel under rated
I’m isolated
More than I expected

Need communication
Face to face it
I want to feel you
Looking to me

Un communicated
And I hate it
Look into my life
Can you feel me?
