Ravens & Chimes - This Is Where We Are lyrics

And if the waters rise up And drown out the whole city And all of the houses where we live A shimmering light spinning Each of the waves bearing a name The name of the body Somewhere below And to all the saints who drowned in the sea I am still here with you And if there's nothing living to be I will be here with you And when all of this has turned its course I'm gonna see you Not always walking Always walking through the door Did you build walls up Did you build them up all around you To keep you from To keep you from the howling wind And to each one seeking the words that they need I'll stand beside you now And to each one listening to wind in the trees My voice behind you now And I can see she's one of us In how I stand beside you now This is where we are This is where we are Don't be frightened This is where we are This is where we are Don't be frightened Do you think when he died He was alone There is the room with yellow walls When I left it was rising Not the sun this time The tide if I recall And we built up a fire To remind us of the people The people that we are And the flames rose like spires In the houses there And we lost way and said "Do you think when I die I'll be alone Deep in the room with yellow walls? Will you leave when its rising up all around you All around you? And you build me fire To remind you of the person The person that he was The flames rise like spires In the houses And everyone says "This is where we are This is where we are Don't be frightened."
