Apathy Cycle - I Objectify Lyrics

Hashtags, binary code
Information overload
SMS or S.O.S.
We've got no time to take a breath
There are so many ways we can communicate
Somehow we can't help but feel a failure to relate

I objectify you
You objectify me
And they objectify us all
There's just one remedy
Change starts with empathy

A modern epidemic, it's unprecedented
We're disconnected from each other
It's unprecedented, a modern epidemic
We're disconnected
Our culture's based on fear and apathy

Touchscreen, smartphones
Culture left on silent mode
Maximize your data plan
Shorten your attention span
Evolved to read movement, tone, and pupil dilation
Text limits can't replace a face to face communication

I objectify you
You objectify me
We lose respect for each other
We've lost our empathy
You've objectified me
I've objectified you
And they've objectified us all
There's still one remedy
Change starts with empathy

A modern epidemic, it's unprecedented
We're disconnected from each other
It's unprecedented, a modern epidemic
We're disconnected
Our culture's based on fear and apathy

Living in disconnect fighting amongst ourselves
Our conveniences have become our worst enemy
We are not objects, we are human beings

It's unprecedented, a modern epidemic
We're disconnected from each other
A modern epidemic it's unprecedented
We're disconnected
Our culture's based on fear and apathy
