WE ARE HERE

So many ways to say the same old things
And one way to listen, really listen
So many ways to forget who we are, you and me
One way to remember
One way to see
Are you listening?

I’m on my phone, you’re on your phone
We’re sitting at the bar, together apart, together alone
I’m posting a selfie and you start to laugh
And show me a cat falling off a table
I laugh too. It’s funny

But we don’t talk any more
Or just walk any more
Look at me, be with me
I am here.
You are here
We are here
We are here

So many ways to hate, distrust, divide, exclude
One way to tell all your friends, all your friends, all your friends
So many little lies tell one big truth about a liar
It’s easy to start a forest fire
Hard to put it out

You’re on your phone, I’m on my phone
You swipe left, I swipe right, together apart, together alone
You’re texting your mum and I start to laugh
And show you an orange man strutting off the edge of the world
You laugh too. Then start to cry

We don’t talk any more
Or just walk any more
Look at me, be with me
I am here
You are here
We are here
We are here
We are all here
We are here

Are we listening?
Really listening?
