Lyrics
We’re living in a thousand rooms
Lit by the glow of tiny moons
Scrolling through each other’s lives
While silence slowly grows inside
A million voices start to shout
But no one’s really hearing now
We throw our words into the night
And turn strangers into fights
Pre-Chorus
But somewhere underneath the noise
A quiet truth remains
Chorus
Put down the phone for a minute tonight
Look in my eyes, not into the light
We’re losing pieces of who we are
Hiding our hearts behind the dark
Put down the phone, just for a while
Remember how it feels to smile
There’s someone real on the other side
A heart like yours, a soul like mine
Verse 2
We measure love in little signs
In hearts and views and comment lines
But empathy is growing thin
In wars we start but never win
We used to talk until the dawn
Now conversations all feel gone
Just echoes in a crowded feed
Of things we never truly need
Pre-Chorus
But somewhere underneath the noise
The human voice survives
Chorus
Put down the phone for a minute tonight
Look in my eyes, not into the light
We’re losing pieces of who we are
Hiding our hearts behind the dark
Put down the phone, just for a while
Remember how it feels to smile
There’s someone real on the other side
A heart like yours, a soul like mine
Bridge
Maybe kindness starts with one small pause
One gentle word instead of war
Maybe the world could slowly change
If we remembered what we’re for
Final Chorus
Put down the phone for a minute tonight
Turn off the noise, step into the light
We’re more than anger on a screen
More than the distance in between
Put down the phone, don’t look away
We still have time to change the way
We see each other, heart to heart
Before we drift too far apart
