We Lost Us Long Ago

About this track
Ever notice how relationships fall to bits in stages? Lack of communication. Lack of intimacy. Lack of presence. This song details just that decay...lyric below: We lost us long ago You watch me like you wonder if I’m grieving TV hides a quiet where our laughter used to fly We sit in sullen silence, with no words coming through Should have talked about our ghosts: we just let them lie We lost us long ago We lost us long ago You kiss me like you’re clocking on a work day (punch in, punch out) Any kindly touch feels like a bullet in my chest Never played your voicemail, I know how it ends Coz we talk like the weather is all that we have left We lost us long ago We lost us long ago The kitchen smells like grease and bad decisions Too much curdled anger, too much time to think Grill looks like a crime scene, fridge feels like a morgue, so I still set two places but I only pour one drink We didn’t test the water Tried but drowned for months You loved the man I might become I loved who you were once We lost us long ago We lost us long ago We lost us long ago We lost us long ago
