I Was Staring At My Phone

I was staring at my phone

I missed the traffic lights turn green

I missed the last car ride for home

I missed a free trip to Rome

I was staring at my phone

I missed the guy who stole my bag

I didn't see the man who might steal my heart

I missed the education that would make me smart.

I was staring at my phone.

I missed the car that didn't see me.

I missed my partner’s heart break in three

I missed him every day missing me.

I was staring at my phone

I missed the guy with the knife

I didn't even feel him take my life

I missed the police telling my wife.

I was staring at my phone

I missed the world passing me by

I missed democracy start to slide

I missed my friend get sick and die

I was staring at my phone

I missed the beginning of world war three

I missed the mushroom cloud rise and float

I missed the planet explode.
