lyrics

NOTHING SPECIAL

If she's in the middle and he's in the middle
then nobody is standing out there
If she filters with yellow and he filters with yellow
then pictures are quite the same
The sun is rising up to a window
behind the glass there's a shape

Holding her coffee, wearing no make-up, she's still in her nightgown
A tear is falling in solitude
making it's way down her face to the ground
And one day this tear will be drunk by a whale
if whales are still around

We are here, living in touchscreens
We are here, under our headphones
We are here, laughing out loudly
We are here
We are here, nothing special

The app she uses for love breaks the silence
she'll never feel alone
Touching the screen, examining faces,
a new connection is formed
And it's easier to paint the nails red
then to clear the dirt underneath

We are here, living in touchscreens
We are here, under our headphones
We are here, laughing out loudly
We are here

We are here, growing in numbers
We are here, pressing a button
We are here, with selfies in bathrooms
We are here

We are here, drifitng through moments
We are here, jumping from airplanes
We are here, kissing drugged tigers
We are here

We are here, genetic subcontractors
We are here
Nothing special

(drifting through moments)
