Digital Canvas – Ivy Adara

Hey Candice, how you been
I only see you when I’m scrolling
I miss hearing your voice
So I’m gonna keep calling
You stop coming out
When you get inside your head I know

Oh, remember when we used have fun
Playing cards on the dining table
Now we’re living online
Cause reality is painful
And I get it times are crazy
Even though everything is changing
I thought we could stay the same

Where have you been?

Oh child
Always smiling for the cameras
Are you happy when it matters?
You’re more than your digital canvas
Oh child
Always caught up in the madness
Are you scared to show your sadness?
You’re more than your digital canvas

Now I’m looking at my screen
Trying to find our lost connection
I miss the real us
Just talking in my bedroom
Laughing ’bout our issues
Trying not to cry
But now you go pose and post with no reply

Cause the affirmation comes pouring in
And you start feelin’ good in your skin
You buy into the flattery
Taking their monopoly money
But they don’t know you like me
And they won’t give you the love that you need

Come back to me

Oh child
Always smiling for the cameras
Are you happy when it matters?
You’re more than your digital canvas
Oh child
Always caught up in the madness
Are you scared to show your sadness?
You’re more than your digital canvas

You’re more than your digital canvas
