We Exist lyrics - The Arcade Fire

They're walking around

Head full of sound

Acting like

We don't exist

They walk in the room

And stare right through you

Talking like

We don't exist

But we exist

Daddy it's true

I'm different from you

But tell me why they treat me like this?

If you turned away

What would I say?

Not the first betrayed by a kiss

Maybe it's true

They're staring at you

When you walk in the room

Tell 'em it's fine

Stare if you like

Just let us through

Just let us through

Na na na na na na na

Na na na na na na na

They're down on their knees

Begging us please

Praying that we don't exist

Daddy it's fine

I'm used to 'em now

But tell me why they treat me like this?

It's cause we do it like this

Maybe it's true

They're staring at you

When you walk in the room

Tell 'em it's fine

Stare if you like

Just let us through

Just let us through

Na na na na na na na

Na na na na na na na

Let 'em stare, let 'em stare!

If that's all they can do!

But I'd lose my heart

If I turn away from you

Oh Daddy don't turn away

You know that I'm so scared

But will you watch me drown?

You know we're going nowhere

We know that we're young

And no shit we're confused

But will you watch us drown?

What are you so afraid to lose?

Down on my knees

Begging us please

Praying that we don't exist

You're down on your knees

Begging us please

Praying that we don't exist

But we exist

We exist

We exist

We exist

Maybe if you hang together

You can make the changes in our hearts

And if you hang together, you can change us

Just where should you start?
