Afterlife Lyrics
[Intro]
I touched with one who made me run
Away from my own soul
In this world with its many illusions
We are moving like mice through a maze
[Verse 1]
And now I find what's left behind
Has served to make me whole
Full of doubt, deception, and delusion
Seeking purpose to all earthly days
I search within beneath a skin
That bears both pleasure and pain
In a world full of constant confusion
I will not be a par to the craze
[Chorus]
In the afterlife will dark be bright?
Will cold be warm?
Will the day have no night?
In the afterlife will the blind have sight?
In the afterlife
[Verse 2]
Behind closed eyes some comfort lies
In knowing the truth never spoken
Through this world with us, hidden conclusion
We'll keep moving like mice through a maze
[Chorus]
In the afterlife will dark be bright?
Will cold be warm?
Will the day have no night?
In the afterlife will the blind have sight?
In the afterlife
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
In the afterlife will dark be bright?
Will cold be warm?
Will the day have no night?
In the afterlife will the blind have sight?
In the afterlife
