Phone Static

[Verse 1]
I wanna turn my phone off
But that's where all my friends are
What do I do, why is it so hard
To find someone new
So far away, are the days
That I used to have someone right beside me
Now I confide in my phone screen
It's tiring, I just wanna feel something

[Pre-Chorus]
Lonely nights talking to pixels
I don't go out
Don't intermix with the crowd
And I wonder why
I'm sitting all alone
Staring at my phone oh

[Chorus]
I just want a connection, is that so hard to ask for?
I just want something that's real, that's alive
Don't want no white noise on the other line
I just want a connection
Is that so hard to ask for
I just want something that's real, that's alive
Don't want no phone static, phone static oh

[Refrain]
(Aah) Phone static Ooh

[Verse 2]
I'm tired of being by myself
But it's better for my mental health
I do not like anybody here
So why do I care
I tell myself
That I just need to have someone right beside me
Or else I'm nothing
But for me, I'd rather be alone
Than with some people that I don't know

[Pre-Chorus]
Lonely nights talking to pixels
I don't go out
Don't intermix with the crowd
And I wonder why
I'm sitting all alone
Staring at my phone oh

[Chorus]
I just want a connection
Is that so hard to ask for
I just want something that's real, that's alive
Don't want no white noise on the other line
I just want a connection
Is that so hard to ask for
I just want something that's real, that's alive
Don't want no phone static, phone static oh

[Bridge]
Text messages on repeat
Start to lose all feeling
Where are the people for me
Text messages on repeat
Start to lose all feeling
Where are the people for me

[Refrain]
Phone static, phone static Ooh
Phone static, phone static
Phone static, phone static Ooh
Phone static, phone static
