The End and Everything After - Johnny Foreigner

I guess the bar staff see this every night

They’re turning tables putting candles out, careless and tired

And all dramas lie unstarted

Came for the money, stayed for the community

And now our funds are tight and now we chose our sides.

We make the same mistakes our friends might

We’re throwing streamers down off balconies,

scattered arcs across the city, makes a new body cold.

How you don’t stop believing in the band

(Last hit for sure)

Just cause the band stopped believing in the band

(Once was enough)

Oh, careless hands, we were made of plans

(From? to one night stands, when everything stands, we were made of plans)

Backdrop set to falling stars does not describe what we are

And god knows what you think of us

I’m losing ground to future ghosts,

I know that we’re good and I know that I’m close

But god knows what you think of us.

Now we sleep crooked if we sleep at all

We squeeze our bodies into spaces where the spaces are filled

And these blisters from our shattered arcs across the city

Makes a new body

And now the pressure’s on and I still sleep alone

We barely notice that our friends are gone

(No!)

We’re chaining cigarettes to pass the time

Coward, dazed by the money, trapped by community

How you don’t stop believing in the band

(Last hit for sure)

Just cause the band stopped believing in the band

(Once was enough)

Oh, careless hands, we were made of plans

(From? to one night stands, when everything stands, we were made of plans)

Fake reports of faulty heart does not describe what you were

And god knows what you’d think of us

I’m losing ground to future ghosts,

I know that I’m good and I know that I’m close

But god knows what you think of us.

Once was enough

Yeah, once was enough
