Quarter  Moon,
 On a city  growing thick
With  good advice  that won't stick.
 From the ballrooms  to the suburbs,
 abandoned  mines
 Atlantis  may be rising but
 We're all  out of time.
 The  colored lights
 On the  fire escape,
 And bodies  move behind  drapes,
 And  the light isn't  even
 And  we're safer in pairs.
 We're  no match, for what is waiting
 For each  of us out there.
 Whistle  baby, while  we walk.
 Don't say  anything, do  not talk.
 The  journey is over,  it is  time to exhale.
 Wherever  we  were going, we're  already there.
 So over the turnstyles,
 Through the guard rails
 And into Washington Square.
 'Cause no amount of nightmares,
 Will ever compare
 To the thought of only silence
 In this ghost-filled air.
 Whistle baby, while we walk.
 Don't say anything, do not talk.
 The journey is over, it's too late to prepare.
 Why can't you see that baby, we're already there.
 Here comes your silhouette,
 More pillow talk.
 Here comes the ticking of these clocks.
 They say the quickest way to end
 A war is just to lose.
 Another chamber locks
 And I already withdrew.
 Here comes the booming,
 In the hunger of each night.
 Here comes the burden of might.
 Now this day was not divinely
 Made to leave you impressed.
 We may become someone someday
 But we haven't yet.
 Whistle baby, while we walk.
 Don't say anything, do not talk.
 The journey is over, it is time to repair.
 Whatever we were building..... baby We're Already There.
 .....We're Already There.
 .....We're Already There.
 .....We're Already There.

[C]Quarter M[G]oon,
On a c[B7]ity growing t[Em]hick
[C]With good ad[G]vice that won't st[B7]ick.
From the b[Em]allrooms to the sub[D]urbs,
aban[C]doned mines
Atla[C]ntis may be rising but
We're [B7]all out of time.

Th[C]e colored li[G]ghts
On [B7]the fire esc[Em]ape,
And b[C]odies move [G]behind dr[B7]apes,
An[Em]d the light i[D]sn't even
An[C]d we're safer in pairs.
We[C]'re no match, for what is waiting
For e[B7]ach of us out there.

Whis[G]tle baby, whi[Cm]le we walk.
Don't s[G]ay anything, do[Cm] not talk.
Th[C]e journey is o[G]ver, it is[Am] time to ex[G]hale.
W[C]herever w[G]e were going, we'r[D]e already there.

So over the turnstyles,
Through the guard rails
And into Washington Square.
'Cause no amount of nightmares,
Will ever compare
To the thought of only silence
In this ghost-filled air.

Whistle baby, while we walk.
Don't say anything, do not talk.
The journey is over, it's too late to prepare.
Why can't you see that baby, we're already there.

Here comes your silhouette,
More pillow talk.
Here comes the ticking of these clocks.
They say the quickest way to end
A war is just to lose.
Another chamber locks
And I already withdrew.

Here comes the booming,
In the hunger of each night.
Here comes the burden of might.
Now this day was not divinely
Made to leave you impressed.
We may become someone someday
But we haven't yet.

Whistle baby, while we walk.
Don't say anything, do not talk.
The journey is over, it is time to repair.
Whatever we were building..... baby We're Already There.

.....We're Already There.
.....We're Already There.
.....We're Already There.
