Quarter Moon,
|
On a city growing thick
|
With good advice that won't stick.
|
From the ballrooms to the suburbs,
|
Abandoned mines
|
Atlantis may be rising but
|
We're all out of time.
|
|
The colored lights
|
On the fire escape,
|
And bodies move behind drapes,
|
And the light isn't even
|
And we're safer in pairs.
|
We're no match, for what is waiting
|
For each of us out there.
|
|
Whistle baby, while we walk.
|
Don't say anything, do not talk.
|
The journey is over, it is time to exhale.
|
Wherever we were going, we're already there.
|
|
So over the turnstyles,
|
Through the guard rails
|
And into Washington Square.
|
'Cause no amount of nightmares,
|
Will ever compare
|
To the thought of only silence
|
In this ghost-filled air.
|
|
Whistle baby, while we walk.
|
Don't say anything, do not talk.
|
The journey is over, it's too late to prepare.
|
Why can't you see that baby, we're already there.
|
|
Here comes your silhouette,
|
More pillow talk.
|
Here comes the ticking of these clocks.
|
They say the quickest way to end
|
A war is just to lose.
|
Another chamber locks
|
And I already withdrew.
|
|
Here comes the booming,
|
In the hunger of each night.
|
Here comes the burden of might.
|
Now this day was not divinely
|
Made to leave you impressed.
|
We may become someone someday
|
But we haven't yet.
|
|
Whistle baby, while we walk.
|
Don't say anything, do not talk.
|
The journey is over, it is time to repair.
|
Whatever we were building..... baby
|
We're Already There.
|
|
We're Already There.
|
We're Already There.
|
We're Already There.
|

We're Already There
