lyrics

Time wasted, in the palm of your hand
Your creative mind is turning bland
Productivity gone down the drain like that
Because we’re all so infatuated

And oh these days no longer work can stay at work
It’s just a perk to bring it home and answer emails from your phone
But the kids they want to play with you and your wife needs help with dinner too
You can't help ‘cause your eyes are glued
And you can't peel them off

As you stare into the palm of your hand
We’d sit side by side for hours with little conversation
You can lock it in your pocket but when you’re bored you’re still drawn back
To the palm of your hand

Yes it’s beneficial but it’s also detrimental
To the way we interact, our relationships are less personal
You forget it, miss place it have anxiety when you can't find it
When you do your stress relieves
Is that how you want to live?

As you stare into the palm of your hand
We’d sit side by side for hours with little conversation
You can lock it in your pocket but when you’re bored you’re still drawn back
To the palm of your hand

The scary thing is it’s getting worse
It lives in my pocket and in your purse
Now children hardly can converse they are lacking social skill
When I was young I’d build a fort, ride my bike or play a sport
But now I’m scrolling when I’m bored for no reason at all

As I stare into the palm of my hand
We’d sit side by side for hours with little conversation
I can lock it in my pocket but when I’m bored I’m still drawn back
To the palm of my hand
To the palm of my hand
To the palm of my hand
