Screens is a song about our current obsession with technology. With Beach Boy-esque harmonies, Panda Bear laments about his desire to pull himself away from “connections to an outside source” so that he may reconnect with “natural things, organic as my skin that peels”.
If I could take my eyes away, might not get so dry now
If I could keep my hands away, might not feel so dried out
And when I would feel I'd know that it is real
I'd like to stay with natural things, organic as my skin that peels
And not so often enter in outer-space that I can never touch
Back-lit and bite, fields in a mine, to turn it off, and to make sure
I keep it real with myself and never let obsessions with connections to an outside source
Be crippling my abilities to breathe and take a step out from my usual places
Just to make sure I keep it real with my own and never let a tendency to tread in water with no target
Cripple my abilities to deal with things that scream 'be careful' Seeing screens with me behind it
No one's between what I should and why am I seeing how to do it?
(why am I seeing screens? why am I seeing screens? why am I seeing screens? why am I seeing screens?)
I feel frail whenever I'm lost in so many screens that I am seeing
Screens appear behind my eyes
But I feel frail whenever I'm lost in so many screens that I am seeing
Screens appear behind my eyes
But I feel frail whenever I'm lost in so many screens that I am seeing
Screens appear behind my eyes
Why am I seeing screens ? Why am I before screens?
Why am I seeing screens ? Why am I before screens?
Why am I seeing screens ? Why am I before screens?
