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 (Ah) 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 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
