Afterlife

Cold night Dark December Half 9 When death takes over youLife ain't As perfect back as when we were kids I'm reminiscing 'bout the days forgotten 'fore all of this It's taking me back to the moment you picked up the phone You lying there bleeding I'm writing at home I dropped the guitar Hitting the road Chasing sirens beck & call Racing through the night To get to you alive Checking every patient Every hospital I'm running through the lights Driving on the right Tryn'a find out if you'll make it all Clinging onto life Choppers in the sky Shutting out the light like I'm fighting off the Afterlife Clinging onto life Pulling out the knife Twenty years gone and I'm fighting off the Afterlife It's only getting harder looking after your peers When you're becoming unfamiliar with their current affairs They're taking a switchblade to the ribcage arguing over theft They left you bleeding on the pavement six Holes in your chestRacing through the night To get to you alive Checking every patient Every hospital I'm running through the lights Driving on the right Tryn'a find out if you'll make it allClinging onto life Choppers in the sky Shutting out the light like I'm fighting off the Afterlife Clinging onto life Pulling out the knife Twenty years gone and I'm fighting off the AfterlifeNot the one bleeding while the sirens call Not the one bleeding while the sirens callNot the one bleeding while The sirens callI'm out here pleading that you'll make it at allNot The one bleeding while the sirens callI'm out here Pleading that you'll make it at all Clinging onto life Choppers in the sky Shutting out the light like I'm fighting off the Afterlife Clinging onto life Pulling out the knife Twenty years gone and I'm fighting off the Afterlife
