Mama Tired

Beckoned by boredom's yawn

At the crack of every dawn

I default to you by no fault of my own

I wonder if I stare more at you, or the things I oughta do

I truly wish that I knew life without a screen

Remember when we used to read?

When we remembered all our dreams

I scroll to be sold my favorite nightmares

But you're the first light that I see

And I crane my neck for thee

I truly wish that I knew life without a screen

I can feel my poor eyes tire

If I ain't hooked then I am a liar

I've never felt so close to so many yet so far away

Where do our precious hours fly

If our brains hurt we all know why

Who can blame a body for not wanting to be alone

Remember when we used to read?

When we remembered all our dreams

I scroll to be sold my favorite nightmares

But you're the first light that I see

And I crane my neck for thee

I truly wish that I knew life without a screen

Well you're the first light that I see

And I crane my neck for thee

I truly wish that I knew life without a screen

I truly wish that I knew life without a screen
