We Are Here (feat. Calum MacColl)

Millions of 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?

Me on my phone, you 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

Well, it is funny but

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

We are here

Are we listening?

Really listening?
