Alfie and the Avalon - Shut the World Away

In this day and age
I feel I hardly know you
Although I see you everywhere
Projected through my screen
Yeah, never face to face
A life of perfect selfies and 24-hour stories
Can you live without your followers?
Can you go without your phone?
I wanna shut the world out
Just for a day
Cause I don't need to read what strangers say
Why can't we share this moment
Without your mobile phone out?
Oh, I just wanna shut the world away
In this day and age
I don't see you in the street
Yet I see you're in Ibiza on my newsfeed
Projected through our screens
I don't mean to call you fake
But have we lost the skill to talk to others?
Can you live without your followers?
Can you go without your phone?
I wanna shut the world out
Just for a day
Cause I don't need to read what strangers say
Why can't we share this moment
Without your mobile phone out?
Oh, I just wanna shut the world away
