I was thinking that tech was the problem
It was eating a lot of my time
But it turns out that what was the problem
Was feeling alone all the time
---------------------------------------------------
I filled my time with hobbies
That didn't do the trick
I filled my time with news
I started feeling sick
---------------------------------------------------
I filled my time with friends
Not TV, computer, or phone
I felt alright again
'Cause I was no longer alone

The Ground does not deserve you
There are places you return to out of habit, not belonging. Rooms that once held you because you didn’t yet know you had the right to leave. People who mistook your endurance for agreement, your silence for consent, your presence for loyalty. Coming back to the ground with clarity means seeing all of it without the old fog softening the edges. You stand in the doorway of your own life and realize that some of the ground you’ve been walking on was never meant to hold your weight.

Let's Don't Do This
"I just can't do this anymore..." "Do what?" What can't you do? Put gas in your own car? I swear to God you make me take care of everything, don't you? You know I'm on my way to work right now but that never stops you from bothering me, does it?"
