Living in the Aftermath Songtext

von Chris Mills

We took the antidote, oh, it was a bitter pill
It rearranged the past
Made us forget how we used to feel
The poison was a part of us
It made us who we were
Now we're just faces and names
And numbers on a calendar

Now I've realized
There's more to life than just being alive
We're living in the aftermath
I don't know how, but at least we survived

And when I look back on the way we used to be
Sometimes I almost miss
All the drama and the tragedy
'Cause blood is a funny thing
The more you lose, sometimes the more you gain
You just have to know when to stop
Because there's no life in an empty vein

And now I've realized
There's more to life than just being alive
We're living in the aftermath
I don't know how, but at least we survived

So I hope you're well, sleeping warm in somebody's arms
And that you forget all the things we said when we were doing each other harm

Because now I've realized
There's more to life than just being alive
We're living in the aftermath
I don't know how, but at least we survived
