about

Extremely distraught "Blue" now examines his Facebook account and notices the pictures he has posted are just of him. He stands alone in a slew of selfies and starts questioning the original purpose of photographs.

lyrics

There's something about the pictures I'm in
A sadness that haunts and steals away my grin
Friends aren't there to give a warm embrace
Like a mirrors glance I only see my face

Pictures are for the memory
Of moments you had with friends and family
When nobody's here I like to fill the void
With pictures of me there's no one else to exploit

Find some moments by yourself, take a picture and post it online
To impress
Get the lighting that's just right, look your best to get a thumbs up
Show the rest

My arm is extended, get the distance right
Angle my face, such a pretty sight
Try to look cool, with all of your might
Just the click of a button, you can post it tonight

I look so alone, is there something to prove?
Another lost drone, do you have your next move?
I should blind them with charm, what's your favourite pic?
I need a longer arm, buy a selfie stick

Standing there all alone, no one there to make you realize
You've got no one
Taking pictures of yourself to fake a life and make us jealous
to show and tell us
