Attention Junkies

Our new addiction is attention
We’re all fiends hooked on dopamine
Our vice of choice is, Our own voices
Reactionary vocabulary thrills
Opinions spill like popping pills
Famous in a fantasy
Withdrawn from reality
We’ve become attention junkies now
And We need to get clean
We crave fame, inject it in our veins
To numb the pain of living mundane lives
To chase that high we live a lie
Famous in a fantasy
Withdrawn from reality
We’ve become attention junkies now
We need to get clean
Can we be seen without a screen?
Do we exist without an audience?
The first step is to admit I’m an addict
With a reflection habit
Inject myself with everyone else’s life
Hope I don’t overdose before I get this right

The pendulum swinging is hypnotizing
As we go from on to the other extreme
