Lyrics

[Verse 1] Lay down your arms and surrender to mine Let me release you from your tangled skin Burn down your temples and your holy shrines Sift through the ashes for the truth that shines [Pre-Chorus] No more weeping or wringing of hands Come with me to the promised land Close your eyes and we'll go down slow We're gonna drown in the afterglow [Chorus] We'll go down We're gonna drown We'll go down We're gonna drown in the afterglow Afterglow Afterglow Afterglow [Verse 2] In the aftermath of Babylon All the pimps and whores have gone All the guilt has been laid to rest Just remember mother never knew best [Pre-Chorus] Tear down the walls raze them to the ground Your ivory tower we'll burn it down And in the evening when the sun gets low We're gonna drown in the afterglow [Chorus] We'll go down We're gonna drown We'll go down We're gonna drown We'll go down We're gonna drown We'll go down We're gonna drown in the afterglow (Afterglow) Afterglow (Afterglow) Afterglow (Afterglow) Afterglow We're gonna drown in the afterglow Afterglow Afterglow Afterglow Afterglow (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) Afterglow (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) Afterglow (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) Afterglow (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) Afterglow (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) Afterglow (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) Afterglow (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) (We're gonna drown in the afterglow) (We're gonna drown in the afterglow)
