Chris Pureka - The Longest Year

Are we still here? Are we still here?
Are we still here, so many vultures but the doves still gather 'round us when the sky starts to blush
The longest year
We feel our lungs fill up with lead, it is a heavy time to have a beating heart
And all I know is we are enough, so keep on and keep your head up

There is a stain around us
There is a question hanging loud, is there any way to get back from where we've been?
But it's quiet in the meadow, there is a bridge right to the sun, there is always a way back to yourself
And all I know is we are enough, so keep on and keep your head up
I know you know it, ‘cause we used to sing it, just hang on, hang on

So for the sleepless mothers and for the tangled souls and for the brokenhearted, with chests like empty rooms And for the walking wounded and for the restless sons And for the weary fighters, for everyone

I know we are enough so keep your head up
I know you know it, ‘cause we used to sing it, just hang on, hang on
I know you know it, ‘cause we used to sing it, just hang on, hang on

The longest year
We took the longest way around, but we're still here, shoulders to the wind
