Where We Are
[Verse 1]
I stay up
Live in REM, I don’t wake up
In my mind feels like the safest
Place where no one else interrupts
It feels like time ain't slow enough
In a place beyond the pines, I'll be Ryan Gosling
See my face on the sign, I’m a keep driving
Seeing colors in the sky, looking ultraviolet
I’m so fucking frightened
Silence, who hear voices over sirens
I remember running from my eyelids
Vices, my best friends in a crisis
I like it, is that fucked up? I’m undecided
I try shit, if I live once, I’m fine with it
I send two missed signals to my con-scious
Self inside, am I self-aware?
When it’s something there, I’ll let you know

[Chorus 1]
Time being lost then, I won’t know
And I don’t know just where we are
And I don’t know just where we are
And I don’t know just where we are

And I can’t find those days that are gone
I don’t know, just where we are
Oh

[Verse 2]
I saw the light, I saw the fire
I saw my life, I saw my father's
Face in the sky, I ain’t never seen, god
Praying every night, I don’t feel obliged
I was born to be a fighter
Even if I ain’t like tuh
Knock a n***a out to prove he we was a survivor
What kind of sense is this?
You convinced I remember this?
Naw you on some different shit dog
Give me some distance
Call me a workaholic, working hard regardless
Too many missed calls and voicemail recordings
Its time, I need focus, I got a lot on my mind
You understand yours, you may understand mines
Oh well, maybe there’s hope for you
I just can’t devote to you
What I ain’t devoted for myself, I ain’t coaching you
I ain't emotional, how-how unapproachable
Anti-social-able, can you justify a selfie as quotable?

[Chorus]
Time being lost then, I won’t know
And I don’t know just where we are
And I don’t know just where we are
And I don’t know just where we are
And I can’t find those days that are gone
I don’t know, just where we are
Oh
Time being lost then, I won’t know
And I don’t know just where we are
And I don’t know just where we are
And I don’t know just where we are
And I can’t find those days that are gone
I don’t know, just where we are
Oh
