Connor Rhodes - Blame The Kids Lyrics

Late nights when I come home
Loneliness starts to tick like a
Metronome
Eyes glued to my telephone

Falling back into the same place
Crawled out so fast just to feel safe
I would hate to show up late
To my own intervention

We point the fingers at the kids
Let's blame them, it's the internet
Even if we invented it
Sexualized consumerist

Working hard to get my fix
Is it real if there's no pics
Watch real closely and learn my ticks
Step inside my brain

Affluent attitude
No real difference between me and you
I'm so fuzzy I get confused
Numbers make me sick

We point the fingers at the kids
Let's blame them, it's the internet
Even if we invented it
Sexualized consumerist

Blatant lies and uncut ties
Trim the fat and I'll survive
Been through this a million times
But feel betrayed again

Taxed to death but don't get a say
Buck the system, it's the American way
Question too much about the grey
You'll end up on a list

Politics and selfish pricks
Left wing, right wing, both gathered the sticks
Big disaster, but made a nest
And never left the tree

We point the fingers at the kids
Let's blame them, it's the internet
Even if we invented it
Sexualized consumerist

One swipe and I'll forget
All the progress of wiping it
Then it's just therapy for the hell of it
Then it's just therapy for the hell of it
