Afterlife by THE HARA Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’m used to being alright
Paint pictures every night
Make people fall in love with the outline
Like shadows in the light
I slip away and hide
I drown with my demons, I

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Know I’m not gonna face it and I don’t know why
Cause I’m the arsonist and the forest fire

[Chorus]
Help me

I’m running my mouth in search of solid ground

I’ve been

Building things up I need to tear them down
I wanna give up the ghost
Stand here exposed
Colour outside the lines
Yeah, and light up my afterlife
[Verse 2]
Been trying to play it safe
We’re taught to medicate
Why d’you think so many of us waste away

This necessary evil
I’m taking out the needle
Been standing in my own way

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You know I wanna face it, but I don’t know how
I’m the prison guard and the one way out

[Chorus]
Help me

I’m running my mouth in search of solid ground

I’ve been

Building things up I need to tear them down
I wanna give up the ghost
Stand here exposed
Colour outside the lines
Yeah, and light up my afterlife
Light up my afterlife

[Mid 8]
I’m the arsonist and the forest fire
And I might suffocate but at least I tried

Help me

I’m running my mouth in search of solid ground

I’ve been

Building things up I need to tear them down...

[Chorus]
Help me

I’m running my mouth in search of solid ground

I’ve been

Building things up I need to tear them down
I wanna give up the ghost
Stand here exposed
Colour outside the lines
Yeah, and light up my afterlife
Light up my afterlife
And light up my afterlife
