Where We Are

(album: This Life - 2023)

We raised the bar
Turned and started following the brightest star
And maybe on that road ahead we'd find out
Who we really are

Made sacrifices
Never put our weapons down, just kept on fighting
When everyone said no, that's when we'd start to go
How did we know?

Just look at where we are
The years behind us
We've come so far
Oh
Above the universe
Standing here, looking back at Earth

We heard the call
The day arrived, we had to build a higher wall
The nights we all came knocking but no one was home
No one's at home

We could have stayed in bed
Not real and just pretend
But that was never enough
We wanted to see the sunset

Just look at where we are
The years behind us
We've come so far
Oh
Above the universe
Standing here, looking back at Earth
Whoa
Run out of luck sometimes
We're only human
We've walked the line and seen it all
Filled up our beating hearts
We're only human
We're where we are
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa

Is it a place or a state of mind?
I took a step and decided to climb
Looking out into space
Let the moon light your face
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Whoa

Just look at where we are
The years behind us
We've come so far
Oh
Above the universe
Standing here, looking back at Earth
Whoa
Run out of luck sometimes
We're only human
We've walked the line and seen it all
Filled up our beating hearts
We're only human
We're where we are
We're where we are, oh
We're where we are, oh

We're where we are
Hmm
Hmm
Where we are
