# AFTER//LIFE **[INTRO — whispered / filtered]** I don't know where I'm going... But I know I can't stay here. Static in my bloodstream, Neon in my eyes. If this is the ending... Then let me come alive. **[VERSE 1]** I've been sleeping with the lights on, Just to keep the dark away. Every shadow knows my old name, Every scar remembers pain. I was built from broken signals, From the words I couldn't say. Now the silence sounds like thunder, And it's calling me away. **[PRE-CHORUS]** So turn it up, Until I can't hear the past. Burn it down, Nothing was built to last. If I'm falling tonight, I wanna fall through the sky. **[CHORUS]** Meet me in the afterlife, Where the broken come alive. Where we leave our ghosts behind And disappear into the light. Meet me in the afterlife, No more running, no goodbye. If tonight we lose ourselves... Then maybe we survive. **[BUILD-UP]** Three... Two... One... COME ALIVE. **[DROP]** *(Vocal chops)* A-A-Afterlife... Come alive... Afterlife... *(Heavy synth / bass drop)* **[VERSE 2]** Now my heartbeat's synchronized With every flashing light. There's a riot in my bloodstream, There's a fire in the night. All the voices that controlled me Are getting quieter inside. I don't need another savior. I just need to feel alive. **[PRE-CHORUS 2]** Turn it up, Until the walls collapse. Burn it down, I'm never going back. If I'm falling tonight... I wanna fall through the sky. **[CHORUS]** Meet me in the afterlife, Where the broken come alive. Where we leave our ghosts behind And disappear into the light. Meet me in the afterlife, No more running, no goodbye. If tonight we lose ourselves... Then maybe we survive. **[BRIDGE — stripped / piano + ambience]** Maybe heaven isn't somewhere Waiting on the other side. Maybe heaven is the moment You decide to live your life. *(silence)* So... Are you ready? **[FINAL BUILD]** I can feel it... Getting closer... Take my hand. Don't look back. THREE... TWO... ONE... **[FINAL DROP]** COME ALIVE! *(Massive melodic drop)* Afterlife! Afterlife! We were born to come alive! *(Vocal chops)* Alive... Alive... A-A-Afterlife... **[OUTRO]** If this is the ending... I don't wanna say goodbye. I'll meet you... In the afterlife.
