Virtual Girl

She lives her life On that little phone screen That blue light's bright And you can't compete Got a brand new dress And no one's seen it yet Not even her friends She can't remember them When did she forget the real world And the people who like her for real? She's got a thousand people online That like what she's postin' on Instagram But none of them know who she is In the real world In the real world When she gets a like Her brain gets dopamine But it don't last long And it don't come free The clock says four AM And she's been scrollin' since ten It's become her only friend When did this all begin? When did she forget the real world And the people who like her for real? She's got a thousand people online That like what she's postin' on Instagram But none of them know who she is In the real world In the real world What you doin' on a Saturday night? Lookin' at your screen when the time ticks by Your friends call your phone But you won't pick up 'Cause you'd rather be alone Livin' in the virtual world Livin' in the virtual world When did she forget the real world And the people who like her for real? She's got a thousand people online That like what she's postin' on Instagram But none of them know who she is In the real world In the real world Track from the album "Canary In The Coalmine"
