trying my best to get up
but the scrolling has me pinned down
sometimes a smile, sometimes a frown
got to get to work
but the clips have me gripped
what will happen next
just one more clip to watch
and one more becomes many more
and the addiction is setting in for sure
this is a lure
how to get out the door
i need a therapist
someone to break the spell
someone to share this burden
someone to simply tell
someone who will not yell
but understand and help
remind me of a wider world
beyond this electronic cell
