Lyrics

0:12Sometimes I think about the ones that we're replaced
0:16All the millions underneath the burnt and waste
0:24And I get sad because, of course, we'll be the same
0:28All of history collapsing in its wake
0:36Maybe it's enough that I have laid here
0:42Maybe it's enough that I have known inside my head, and
0:48Maybe it's enough to know that we were here together
0:52And that we are the ones
0:56We are the ones
0:59We are the ones for now
1:05I heard that someday when they look up at the night
1:10They'll see nothing but a black and starless sky
1:16And they'll tell stories of some old and callow time
1:22Claiming spectacles of brilliant burning lights
1:29Maybe it's enough that I have laid here
1:35Maybe it's enough that I have known inside my head, and
1:41Maybe it's enough to know that we were here together
1:46And that we are the ones
1:49We are the ones
1:52We are the ones for now
2:19We are the ones for now
2:25So maybe this is what it takes to realize
2:30I am grateful just that I have been alive
2:37And I'll be happy if I look back on my life
2:43Been a sister, been a mother, been a wife
2:52Maybe it's enough that I have laid here
2:57Maybe it's enough that I have known inside my head, and
3:04Maybe it's enough to know that we were here together
3:08And that we are the ones
3:12We are the ones
3:15We are the ones for now
Sometimes I think about the ones that we're replaced
All the millions underneath the burnt and waste
And I get sad because, of course, we'll be the same
All of history collapsing in its wake
Maybe it's enough that I have laid here
Maybe it's enough that I have known inside my head, and
Maybe it's enough to know that we were here together
And that we are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones for now
I heard that someday when they look up at the night
They'll see nothing but a black and starless sky
And they'll tell stories of some old and callow time
Claiming spectacles of brilliant burning lights
Maybe it's enough that I have laid here
Maybe it's enough that I have known inside my head, and
Maybe it's enough to know that we were here together
And that we are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones for now
We are the ones for now
So maybe this is what it takes to realize
I am grateful just that I have been alive
And I'll be happy if I look back on my life
Been a sister, been a mother, been a wife
Maybe it's enough that I have laid here
Maybe it's enough that I have known inside my head, and
Maybe it's enough to know that we were here together
And that we are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones for now
