Afterwards

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Now you're dead and gone No loneliness, just on my own Sometimes you walk into my room And sit and brood until I fall asleep Love is tiresome when you're older Grief and madness make you colder You still won't let anyone but you Hold on to me until it's hard to breathe [Chorus] Breathe Leave me [Verse 2] First, tell me how to live You were the only one I gave all of myself I love you now more than I could I've thrown away the flaws Death redeems you whеn you're under— —neath thе earth, it makes me wonder About the years that came before And all the things I feel I must ignore [Chorus] Breathe Keep me [Bridge] Please let me be How I wanna be I see you there Looking straight in me Judging me Loving me What I feel What I think What I wanna give Oh, how I wanna live What I feel What I think What I wanna give Oh, how I wanna live [Outro] I wanna live I am ready to live
