Here (Already)
Feels like I'm always in a rush
To be somewhere else
But, what for, what for, what for?
Always in a hurry to turn right around
And run out the door
But, where am I headed?
When I'm here already
Oh, where am I trying to go
When I'm only ever here already (here already)
It's like I'm running in circles
But, I'm always going to be the
Bullseye, bullseye, bullseye
Though the world don't revolve around me
No, I know without you, there'd be no I
So, where are we going now?
When we're here already (here already)
Tell me, where are we trying to be
When we're already here already (here already)
*Interlude*
Feels like we're (always in a rush
To be somewhere else (x4) )
Yeah, I've been running down a road
Fast leading me toward
Nothing, nothing, nowhere
But, there's nowhere else to go
No, there's no outrunning despair
Oh, you can't have one
Without the other
But, so long as we are here
How can there be another? (There is no other way)
*Interlude*
But, here, it's already all come and gone
So, what is it I've been running from?
What is it we're all running from?
When everything is already come and gone?
Oh, what is it we are running from?
(*Overlapping vocals* : When we're here already)
What is it that everyone is running from?
If everything is already said and done
Then, what is it we are running from?
What is it we are running from?
What is it we are running from?
What is it we are running from?
(*OV* : When we're here already, here already)
When this song is already long now come and gone?
*********
Epilogue:
Here
You know that we are here
It should be clear by now
That 'here' is where we are
And here
All the pain will disappear
For as long as we are here-and-now
There is no near or far
Here
You know that we are here...
Yeah, here
Everything will disappear...
To be somewhere else
But, what for, what for, what for?
Always in a hurry to turn right around
And run out the door
But, where am I headed?
When I'm here already
Oh, where am I trying to go
When I'm only ever here already (here already)
It's like I'm running in circles
But, I'm always going to be the
Bullseye, bullseye, bullseye
Though the world don't revolve around me
No, I know without you, there'd be no I
So, where are we going now?
When we're here already (here already)
Tell me, where are we trying to be
When we're already here already (here already)
