lyrics

We all had a voice
Could all be heard
Now we can reach a million people
Without saying a word
I see five billion people screaming at the top of their lungs
And no one's listening

They say we're all connected
Isn't that great
You talk to your friends
Anytime of day
You can share who you are with the world they say
Then why do I see so many people sharing that they're lonely?

Cause we're overwhelmed, I see
We're overwhelmed by flat screens
Bright lights, signs, advertising, new communication
Too much information

Age of information
Just google it
All these different wikis
Playing dialectic
But separating the truth from lies takes time
And finding the whole truth is impossible

Feel so small and powerless
These troubles going on
Seems like no one cares
Like no one's doing their job
But they're all just sitting around like you
Worrying about everyone else's job

Cause we're overwhelmed, I see
We're overwhelmed by flat screens
Bright lights, signs, advertising, new communication
Too much information
Yeah we're overwhelmed, I hear
We're overwhelmed by silent fears
Won't ever have to talk in the world we got
And if we don't connect it's so much safer

Girl hunched over
Make-up running
Crying on the street
Can't see her through her tears
Walk by looking at your feet
If you see she passed away
On the news blog the next day
You'd post your sympathies

In twenty thirty years
We'll learn to go back in time
We'll wanna see the sixties
Wanna see our prime
We'll descend from outer space
One with our machines
We'll say we come in peace
They'll think we're aliens

Cause we're overwhelmed, I see
We're overwhelmed by flat screens
Bright lights, signs, advertising, new communication
Too much information
Yeah we're overwhelmed, I hear
We're overwhelmed by silent fears
Won't ever have to talk in the world we got
And if we don't connect it's so much safer
