Real Contact

Lack of perspective leads to resistance
Parts of humanity doubt their existence
A flatscreen is flat, lose one dimension
We lose real contact, never mind our intentions

You cannot meet people
You cannot touch people
You cannot smell people

Connected by 'socials', but we're all fucking lonely
No outdoor activity but Zoom meetings only
Using WhatsApp or Skype simply is no replacement
We might just give up, hang ourselves in our basements

You cannot meet people
You cannot touch people
You cannot smell people

You cannot meet people, neither family or friends
You cannot touch people, any real contact ends
You cannot smell people, because their breath is unhealthy
You cannot feel people, all that's left are their selfies

Blaming Covid-19, ultimate escapism
Mankind exposed, ever growing racism
Without real contact, nobody is listening
Whether angry or sad our eyes won't stop glistening

You cannot meet people
You cannot touch people
You cannot smell people
