lyrics

“After The War (feat. superbeautiful)”
Jensen Reed & Christian James Hand

Verse 1
I was standing on the edge of what I had to face
Legend of the fall, furious collapse from grace
It had been a long time since I felt that way
Swimming in the indecision of my darkest days
Spiral down abyss got me gasping for air
Listless electricity ,the thoughts I bear
I tried so hard, so many times to carry through
To lay to rest all the mess, to press undo
But no frame of mind could ever save me
At least that’s what I told myself daily
I thought I was alone until I looked in the sky
Then I knew I could change and I started to try
I gave it all up with the hope
That I would one day compose with the harmony note
A symphony soaring through the key of your life
When you think it’s too much, stand up and fight

Chorus

I want to say the answer isn’t anything you’ve heard before
I want to tell you everything begins again after the war

Verse 2

You know that cold, dark feeling pounding in your guts
Quiet little voices in your head, shhh, listen up
They are telling you to play it safe
To watch the day-to-day fly by terrified, without a trace
So you give in, believe all the lies
The stage is too big, why bother? Don’t try
A leader died would you ever know their name?
Rise up to the surface take control of the game
It’s all the same no matter where you’re born or you live
Watch the chains unravel when you start to forgive…yourself now
Throw your hands in the air
Let the wave hit you hard now you hardly care
Breathe it down deep as you can
Twisted knot in your stomach now you finally understand
What it feels like to be fearless instead
Full moon rising, the sky is red

Chorus

I want to say the answer isn’t anything you’ve heard before
I want to tell you everything begins again after the war

Middle 8

Don’t speak, let ‘em hear your heart sing
You’re afraid, scared what tomorrow brings
Same nightmares driving you crazy
Trying hard to see the reason but your vision is hazy
Look for the signs, open your eyes
Hoping ammunition is enough to disguise
Cock back, stop that, steady change ready aim
Fire when you feel the blood pumping through your veins

The shadowland is begging for our souls

Chorus
