Aftermath - As Lions

Shadows pouring like rain

Beneath the decay

Alone we wait for the end to come

We look for the signs

A glimmer of light

A crack in the sky

What have we created?

What have we become?

Meaningless and jaded

The forsaken ones

Following the footsteps

Deep into the black

We echo in the darkness

Knowing there’s no turning back

Tell me, how long do we wait

Until we see the other side?

At the end of everything

Nothing left but you and I

Waiting for the storm to pass

Caught up in the aftermath

With you by my side

We walk into the fire

We reap what we sow

The end of the rope

Tightens its hold around our throats

We’re closer to death

We’re counting each breath

Like it was our last

What have we created?

What have we become?

Meaningless and jaded

The forsaken ones

Following the footsteps

Deep into the black

We echo in the darkness

Knowing there’s no turning back

Tell me, how long do we wait

Until we see the other side?

At the end of everything

Nothing left but you and I

Waiting for the storm to pass

Caught up in the aftermath

With you by my side

We walk into the fire

We’re burning all the same across this divide

So will we see the rain?

Or let the flames decide?

What have we created?

What have we become?

Meaningless and jaded?

Are we too far gone?

Tell me, how long do we wait

Until we see the other side?

At the end of everything

Nothing left but you and I

Waiting for the storm to pass

Caught up in the aftermath

With you by my side

We walk into the fire
