I'm right here just across the room
But you're lost in a world of your glowing doom
Scrolling through pictures of folks you don't know
While the moments we're making slip and go
Get off your effing phone look up and see
The world's still turning here with me
Put it down just for a while
Trade the screen for a laugh a look and a smile
I miss the sound of your voice the light in your eyes
Not filtered through someone else's life
You're here but you're not and it's breaking me slow
Every second that you're in that scrolling flow
Get off your effing phone look up and see
The world's still turning here with me
Put it down just for a while
Trade the screen for a laugh a look and a smile
We're more than a selfie a status a like
More than the pixels you scroll through each night
I'm right here waiting so don't keep me froze
Be here be real before this moment goes
So tell me a story a thought or a dream
Anything but that endless silent screen
Life's too short and time's too fast
Put the phone away let's make this moment last
Get off your effing phone look up and see
The world's still turning here with me
Put it down just for a while
Trade the screen for a laugh a look and a smile
Yeah get off your effing phone just be here tonight
In this real-life moment bathed in real light
You and me no likes no drones
Just us together get off your effing phone
