We Have Lost Contact

You and I, we used to click like a light And if I ever believed In a thing called a soul And that two of these things Could together fill a hole You certainly would have fit that mold Just right Now we have lost contact From all the notions we held dear And broken every unspoken contract Written in our tears Thrown away all our emotions But for the fear And we won't ever recover from what we have lost We refuse to even acknowledge the true cost This asphalt used to be my green It stings my shins and scrapes my knees And shreds my jeans This ravine where I loved you Used to be so clean Now we have lost contact with the truth In favor of a cheaper substitute I have loved every crease of your skin Your dirty nails Your quivering chin Like a faded memory of silence We once thought of as sin This anger has now carved me out inside The asphalt meeting my feet Is the only contact that I don't hide Anymore And we won't ever recover from what we have lost We refuse to even acknowledge the true cost
