I Don’t Know How We Got Here

A boy was killed
In the arcade
The ice cream spilled
Down on the blade
A thousand lights
Starting to fade
Down where he played

A girl got lost
In the old mall
Her coat was found
Out by the wall
A thousand ghosts
Starting to crawl
Easing her fall

Hey
I don't know how we got so far down here
I don't know how this silence broke our ears
I don't know how we got so far down here
Choking slowly
I don't know how we got here

A birthday card
Flew into space
The red balloons
Cold and disgraced
A thousand words
Leaving this place
No one's embraced

Hey
I don't know how we got so far down here
I don't know how the silence broke our ears
I don't know how we got so far down here
Choking slowly
I don't know how we got here

I don't know how we got so far down here
Choking slowly
Far down here
Altered and lonely
I don't know how we got here
