After the Fall (Dark Version)

Prelude - Vocal group harmonies

Shadows gather all around

Lost voices call without a sound

Heartbeat echo through empty halls

Before the breaking, before it all

Slow-motion memories drift and part

Weight of the silence pressing our hearts

Hands are trembling, breath is thin

Waiting for daylight to let us in

Verse 1

Empty

Cold tile

The water runs

I watch the drain swallow

Grey dirt and heavy memories of us

Now

I am fine

Just breathing slow

Chorus

After the fall

After the fall

Everything looks different now

Everything feels heavier now

After the fall

After the fall

Post-Chorus

Falling

Falling

Down

Down

Verse 2

Bitter bite of winter wind

Lungs

Sharp

Frozen solid

My fingers can't feel

The metal on the railing tonight

Why

Why stay

Why look back

I forgot the way home anyway

Chorus

After the fall

After the fall

Everything looks different now

Everything feels heavier now

After the fall

After the fall

Bridge

The iron gears are grinding slow

The rust is eating through the bone

The sound of silence grows so loud

I scream

I cry

I wait

No one is coming to help me up

Chorus

After the fall

After the fall

Everything looks different now

Everything feels heavier now

After the fall

After the fall

Outro

Just the dirt

Just the dust

Just the end

After the fall
