Where We Are

[ JOSEPH, spoken ]
Is this about the size of the room?

[ LUKE, spoken ]
What?

[ JOSEPH, spoken ]
Where you were. Was the room about this size?

[ LUKE, spoken ]
Almost exactly, yeah. But in that room, there was only one window

[ JOSEPH, spoken ]
And it was quiet most of the time, you said?

[ LUKE, spoken ]
Yeah. Except there was this one shutter, and its hinges rusted out so it was stuck in place, like, sticking out from the house, so when the wind picked up, it made this humming sound. That's pretty much all I would hear when I was alone. At first it freaked me out, it sounded like a haunted house, but then I started liking it. It started sounding like home

[ JOSEPH ]
How come nobody asks us where we are?
Ever
Where we're going, sure
Not where we are
Never
We can talk about trips we'll take
Boats we'll sail on next year's lake
But how come nobody asks us where we are?

Books get read, and
Weeks go by
Life gets single-laned
So do I

I've been wanting to ask you where you are
Lucas
Where you've been, but mostly where you are
Lucas
Go, explore the waves, the moon
The world, I hope I'll see you soon
But first, I'm wanting to ask you
Where you are
