Here We Aren't

Everything gone in an instant
Sometimes over before it began
Pushing and grasping
Screaming and gasping
The flowers of spring have faded
The autumn leaves absent from the horizon
If only you could see
Waiting for the cold of winter
Yearning for the sun rays of the spring
Just as the choirs of the night begin to sing
Oh, we’re never truly here
Living on borrowed time
Running from our fears
Oh no, no matter where we are
Here we aren’t, no matter where we are
Here we aren’t
The stillness all around us
The passing of all we’ve ever known
The cycle of emptiness
We come and we go all alone
Whether we’re crawling up the stairs
Or being wheeled down the hall
Nothing we ever do seems to matter at all
Oh, we’re never truly here
Living on borrowed time
Running from our fears
Oh no, no matter where we are
Here we aren’t
No matter where we are
Here we aren’t
