We Get Here Lyrics

In the basement

Of our lady of peace

We held hands

And asked for our daily reprieve

And a tired man

Got ready to leave

Stopped a moment

And looked around uncertainly

I said

I know it seems a whole lot to learn

I can see your face is burning

Just know

That everyone is thinking the same thing

I know it's asked a lot but

How the hell did we get here

Something's got to give

Why the hell should I stay here

I know it's asked a lot but

How the hell did we get here

Something's got to give

I have no choice but to stay here

These pieces of me

That I gave up for what

A moment of silence

I take them all back

Then ask for help

And guidance

In planting a new garden

In the basement

Of our lady of peace

We held hands

And asked for our daily reprieve

Then that same man he spoke

And it sounded like poetry

It was a portrait of a rebirth

These pieces of me

That I gave up for what

A moment of silence

I take them all back

Then ask for help

And guidance

In planting a new garden

These pieces of me

That I gave up for what

A moment of silence

I take them all back

Then ask for help

And guidance

In planting a new garden

Grow
