life online

I was six years old
When the internet came and it took a hold on me
YouTube was the first
To fully captivate me until i was submersed
In the internet
Stole my life before i knew it, but I guess I'm not upset
I'm generation Y
Yeah we lazy millennials, we don't even try

Because our lives are online
And I gain validation from the likes on my Vines
Oh yeah, my life is online
13 reposts, what the hell? That's not fine

Tumblr came along
It was a little weird but I guess still good for this song
I even tried ask.fm
I asked my own questions, friends? I didn't have them
I scroll through Facebook
One can be impressive with political hooks
And I can't forget Snapchat
The filters clear my acne, though I look like a rat
And if I wanna know what I did last week
I can just go look on my Twitter feed
If my self-esteem's low
I'll go find some good lighting
Upload my face on Insta, oh, how exciting

Yeah, my life is online
Gaining validation from the likes on my Vines
Oh yeah, my life is online
13 reposts, what the hell? That's not fine
Yeah, my life is online
I gain validation from the likes on my Vines
Oh yeah, my life is online
I'm internally invested but I guess that's fine
