Stories full of empty promise
Could never follow the thread
Words, a far cry from meaning
Can't convey what flows in my head
Dreaming of a lonely place
Voicing this confusion
Rooted in a world of movement
Tears away the illusion
Just an afterthought
Of the world we're in
Just an afterthought
Of the world we're in
Walked out on another life
Took all my sins away
If every breath was the last one
What would we say
I'll keep pushing my rock up this hill
As long as there's tread on my shoes
Keep moving while my body allows
Was it ever my place to choose?
Just an afterthought
Of the world we're in
Just an afterthought
Of the world we're in
Just an afterthought
Of the world we're in
Just an afterthought
Of the world we're in
Just an afterthought
Of the world we're in
Just an afterthought
