(all start running around get around Asha)
Joel: Since I saw you Siri
The first day that we met
I knew that our love
Maren: Would be something I can’t forget
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
Since you shut down from the heat
Emilie: I love you more than life itself
And I don’t know what to do with myself
With curved edges and bright eyes
Anna: I knew you were the possession that I prized
Without a reason to check my phone
I now go to bed alone
