How Did We Get Here by Wake Low Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How did we get here?
It's easy to forget
On the field that I knew lies cheap cement
How did we get here
We're running out of time
The river was rushing, now it's bone dry
[Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
To a tomb that's broken wide
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
[Verse 2]
I took the long way to Georgetown
There cast a winter glow
Dressed in a ball gown of paper-white snow
Now the sun is an ember
Fiery colors collide
But every cinder I left behind
[Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
To a tomb that's broken wide
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
[Bridge]
Edged blurred it's a muted word
I'm so close to seeing
Truth lies low behind the veil
This hazy view is fleeing
Is everything I'm (?) an arrow to the sun
Or does this (?) sink to the ground with nothing new begun
[Verse 3]
So how did I get here?
(?) vision of embrace
I thought that I forgot, but I know this place
[Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
To a tomb that's broken wide
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
How did we get here?
It's easy to forget
On the field that I knew lies cheap cement
How did we get here
We're running out of time
The river was rushing, now it's bone dry
[Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
To a tomb that's broken wide
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
[Verse 2]
I took the long way to Georgetown
There cast a winter glow
Dressed in a ball gown of paper-white snow
Now the sun is an ember
Fiery colors collide
But every cinder I left behind
[Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
To a tomb that's broken wide
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
[Bridge]
Edged blurred it's a muted word
I'm so close to seeing
Truth lies low behind the veil
This hazy view is fleeing
Is everything I'm (?) an arrow to the sun
Or does this (?) sink to the ground with nothing new begun
[Verse 3]
So how did I get here?
(?) vision of embrace
I thought that I forgot, but I know this place
[Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
To a tomb that's broken wide
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
Every moment you take is avoiding a grave
Oh it's time to wake
