Lyrics Freedoms - The Correspondents

Freedoms

How many years have you lived in a place you can’t call home
How many days have I wiled away with my two thumbs tapping in front of a phone
How much time have I lost you in powders and booze
How many minutes in a day have you been nothing and not ringing before you’re
willing to choose
You sit for less than a minute and boredom strikes
Years of our lives wasted counting likes
Read, watch, write by click, tap, post, and swipe
You’ve got your freedoms
And I’ve got mine
Let’s find new ways to
Waste our time
Important business
Do I get them in the blue or the black?
Do I need this?
I could make do, but I want something new
Rate my smile and my new shoes
Whether I keep them in my collection depends upon your views
You sit for less than a minute and boredom strikes
Years of our lives wasted counting likes
Read, watch, write by click, tap, post, and swipe
You’ve got your freedoms
And I’ve got mine
Let’s find new ways to
Waste our time
From my sofa, I shout (my sofa, I shout)
From my sofa, I shout (my sofa, I shout)
From my sofa, I shout (my sofa, I shout)
From my sofa, I shout
From my sofa, I shout
Someone else on a sofa shouts the same shout back
Windows become mirrors, your views reflect and ricochet but the mirrors don’t
crack
Many, many owls, no doubt
It’s safe with all the things that I like
Locked in a room where you think about the things that you said that you can
never take back
You sit for less than a minute and boredom strikes
Years of our lives wasted counting likes
Read, watch, write by click, tap, post, and swipe
You’ve got your freedoms
And I’ve got mine
Let’s find new ways to
Waste our time
You’ve got your freedoms
And I’ve got mine
Let’s find new ways to
Waste our time
