Been looking at that lit up screen for a little while too long
All the things that you have seen were there but now they're gone
Once you had the whole world beating at your fingertips
Held it all in your hand; you see it, now you don't
Now you see it, now you don't
Mmm mm, mmm mm
Mmm mm, mmm mm
All the tales and histories, receipts and email chains
One day will be lost to the sea, forgotten in the sands
Had your moment in the sun, it's time to let it go
Fair-weather friends and fickle fans, you see them then you don't
Mmm mm, now you see them, now you don't
Mmm mm, mmm mm
Mmm mm, mmm mm
You only stepped out for a moment for some air
Came back in to find some new usurper in your chair
Once you were a precocious youth, the toast of all the town
Don't get too attached 'cause first you see it, then you don't
Mmm mm, now you see it, now you don't
Mmm mm, mmm mm
Aah ah, aah ah, aah ah
Mmm mm, now you see it, now you don't
