Abstracted

I’m happy that you could be here
Won’t you stay for a while?
I hope this finds you well and you burn a little bit brighter
Because I’ve felt loss and heartache, and I know that you have, too
If words can convey, I trust you see the truth
Everything that’s brought us here has led me to believe
That hate and our divisions are a trick up someone’s sleeve

Desperately restless from yesterdays
You’re letting the present just slip away
You seem so distant
You’ve been so different
Caught in your head
Just be here
I need you back in
It’s like I’m missing
Oxygen!
Just be here

Just be here!

We’ve all hurt the same
We’ve all bled in pain
Hold on to the love that remains!
Surrounded by malice and fear
The hatred they revere

Desperately restless from yesterdays
You’re letting the present just slip away
You seem so distant
You’ve been so different
Caught in your head
Just be here
I need you back in
It’s like I’m missing
Oxygen!
Just be here

Our absence, our vacancy
Created by complacency
Keeps us wandering aimlessly
Past beauty we’ll never see!

You seem so distant
You’ve been so different
Caught in your head
Just be here
You’re distant
You’re different
You’re caught in your head
I miss you
I need you like oxygen

Just be here
Just be here
Just be here
Just be here
