Hereafter - Architects

Oh, when I left my mamas home Left her for dead when I left her all alone The whores they won't let me be at night They can't replace the warmth I need tonight Because I'm cold, cold as hell The lord, He don't wait for me at night He knows what I've done is wrong and it ain't right The devil await me with open arms And he sways me with his wiles and with his charms I'm holding on when there's nothing left to hold onto Hold on to the sweet hereafter The fountain from where I drank from as a child When I was young I was bored and I was wild Since then I have grown into a man And I know that I can always stand But I'm wrong, I'm still a child Hold on to the sweet hereafter Hold on to the sweet hereafter

Oh... One, two, three, four We're separated by a margin of a greater degree The same flesh and blood, but in a different lane I've read the remedy too But my words, they still sounded the same When we were young We thought we had the whole world figured out Now all we do is speak in tongues We play a losing game Only now we hear the shouts fading out We flew into the sun (oh) We flew into the sun I'm dedicated to the shadow that's been following me It caught me counting the cards, I guess the rules remain Oh, it was heavenly then But the devils were calling my name When we were young We thought we had the whole world figured out Now all we do is speak in tongues We play a losing game Only now we hear the shouts fading out We flew into the sun Is there something in your eye? Did you fall, or were you just on a high? Everybody's so afraid they could die But they never once said, "Thank God we're alive" (oh) Is there something in your eye?
