[Verse 1]

When did words get so dangerous?

Now they’re all sharp as knives

Used to have conversations

But now we’re just picking fights

Nobody wants to listen, no

We’re shooting from the hips

We only like the news that fits our selfish narrative

We’re losing all the middle ground

[Chorus]

Talking with our eyes closed

Like all we want to hear are echoes

Starting little wars on our phones

Like all we want to hear are echoes

[Verse 2]

On the internet

Pointing out everybody’s flaws

Always crying wolf

Cause we’re addicted to applause

Forget they’re only human

Didn’t grow up like you did

Outrage is artificial, now it’s going to our heads

[Chorus]

Talking with our eyes closed

Like all we want to hear are echoes

Starting little wars on our phones

Like all we want to hear are echoes

[Bridge]

Tell me, who’s got time for civility?

Don’t want to think twice about what we believe

Just want to start waving the flag of crucifixion

Wanna see them down on their knees

We’re losing all the middle ground

Only ever hear the sound

Of all these echoes

All these echoes

[Chorus]

Talking with our eyes closed

Like all we want to hear are echoes

Starting little wars on our phones

'Cause all we want to hear are echoes
