Alec Benjamin - Dopamine Addict

Alec Benjamin艾力克班傑明美國創作型歌手, 從Let me down slowly認識他, 亞利桑那州長大的男孩! 他的專輯'(Un)Commentary'的歌曲中的Dopamine Addict, 覺得他很有才華!歌曲長度2:24, 不是很長,但能說中手機上癮者的人的狀況, I was a dopamine addict! Dopamine Addict即是多巴胺成癮, 很多人也有手機上癮,狂滑動手機畫面, 是一場沒有止境的循環, 形成壞習慣。壞情況是會哭在床上。現代人即使有閱讀習慣,很多時也是用手機看, 所謂螢幕發光,無論甚麼都看,於社交媒體得到回應,得到即時回應,影響腦袋怎釋出多巴胺, 達至快樂的高峰,很容易沉迷其中, 很浪費時間, 不知怎樣終止。不應只是從社交媒體得到滿足感, 釋出多巴胺。原來在紙張閱讀和在電子器材閱讀對腦袋也有不同的影響, 神經科學家Maryanne Wolf就業於加州大學洛杉磯分校,專長於研究腦袋怎樣閱讀。我們需要學習閱讀, 她的研究指出如果一篇長過500字的文章, 人們在課本學習會學得多於在螢幕上。為了戒掉這壞習慣,可學習一種新技能, 一開始學習是很難上手, 但會帶來長久的滿足感。

[Verse 1] Six months clean off the dopamine Threw my phone through the wall My friends can't get a hold of me Just a dial tone when they call [Pre-Chorus] Chills and sweats comin' over me And I'm aching from the withdrawal This chemistry has got a hold of me Got a hold of me, got a hold of me [Chorus] I'm a dopamine addict, can't break the habit Runs in my head, psychosomatic Stare in the mirror, hide in the attic Cry in my bed, I'm a dopamine addict And I feel like I'm out of touch Keep thinkin' I need that crutch Keep thinkin' I need that rush I just can't break the habit, can't break the habit Runs in my head, dopamine addict [Verse 2] I have these dreams where I'm me again And they almost feel like they're real It's as if I have self-esteem again It's as if I'm starting to heal

[Pre-Chorus] The chills and sweats grab a hold of me And they pull me out of my dream They just won't seem to let go of me To let go of me, to let go of me [Chorus] I'm a dopamine addict, can't break the habit Runs in my head, psychosomatic Stare in the mirror, hide in the attic Cry in my bed, I'm a dopamine addict And I feel like I'm out of touch Keep thinkin' I need that crutch Keep thinkin' I need that rush I just can't break the habit, can't break the habit Runs in my head, dopamine addict [Bridge] The cycle is doomed Recycle, reuse And then up the potency The cycle is doomed Recycle, reuse It just won't let go of me Won't let go of me, got a hold of me

[Chorus] I'm a dopamine addict, can't break the habit Runs in my head, psychosomatic Stare in the mirror, hide in the attic Cry in my bed, I'm a dopamine addict And I feel like I'm out of touch Keep thinkin' I need that crutch Keep thinkin' I need that rush I just can't break the habit, can't break the habit Runs in my head, dopamine addict
