Intro

today I found my soul

i felt it die inside of me

so I turn to you

life is like that, you know

Verse 1

i have your face in a photo in high school

when you were alive

 but that's all I have

 and I can't remember who I was myself then

 and it doesn't help

 still I look to you as a friend

to tell me

Chorus

who we are now, who we are

who we are now, who we are

where does time go now on a wake for young souls you tell me

who we are now, who we are

it's who we are now, who we are

where does time go now on a wake for young souls

like a lullaby we sing

Verse 2

well the wind that blows

it's blowing colder

and the child that grows

she's growing older

and the friends we know

they'll turn a shoulder

the friends we know

they're growing colder so

Chorus 2

who we are now, who we are

who we are now, who we are

where does time go now on a wake for young souls

you tell me,

who we are now, who we are

it's who we are now, who we are

whoa whoa now on a wake for young souls

Bridge

where's my soul?

where's my soul?

where's my soul?

where's my soul?

where's my soul?

Verse 3

cycle of the moon brings blood to the woman

in the blood of the woman brings birth of a child

child grow up

keep forgetting something

birth of a child comes someplace wild you

even grey days beat the shade to wean

unbodied unsouled unheard unseen

let the gift be grown in the time to call our own

let the truth be sewn before the window's closing

truth is natural like a wind that blows

follow the direction no matter where it goes

so it shall be the earth and the sea

let the truth blow like a hurricane through me

(Arpeggio)

Verse 4

if i've been cold, if i've spoken in anger

to have been bold

forgive me

you know i don't see your mother

not like before

though she hasn't forgotten

she doesn't like to be reminded anymore

annie got married

it didn't come without tears

like the day you died I have laughter for these years

Chorus

so it's who we are now, who we are

it's who we are now, who we are

where does time go now on a wake for young souls now

it's who we are now, who we are

it's who we are now, who we are

whoa whoa on a wake for young souls

all the things we know

are going to fall away from me

like a grain of sand

slips through a good friend's hand
