Where Are You?

When the light in your face fades

When your eyelids weigh a ton

When you're unable to say a word

When you find yourself going cold

We'll put you up on a pedestal,

That's been handpicked for you

This one's for you, center of the room

It's your big day and now I'm here, too

We're all here for you, but you're not here for us

And the only reason I'm here is just because

Do you know where you are, will I be where you are?

Is that your spirit aglow in the stars?

Where are you now, where are you now?

And where have I been?

You don't need to move a muscle,

Your affairs have been handled

And your spot has been picked

Relax, stay still, for as long as you want

You have earned a long break

Your smile has long disappeared,

A resource that can't be replaced

And your voice has become a sound

No one in this room may ever hear fresh

We're all here for you, but you're not here for us

And the only reason I'm here is just because

Do you know where you are, will I be where you are?

Is that your spirit aglow in the stars?

Where are you now, where are you now?

And where have I been?

Can you tell me every place you've been?

Can you tell me every person you've been?

I know I'm a guest uninvited, but let in at the door

Instead of your personality, I was introduced to your corpse

Does the fact you're a stranger make it better or worse?

I missed out on your entire life spent here

It was nice to meet you, I hope you rest in peace

We're all here for you, but you're not here for us

And the only reason I'm here is just because

Do you know where you are, will I be where you are?

Is that your spirit aglow in the stars?

Where are you now, where are you now?

And where have I been?
