Lyrics
Once I made a count down to a life beyond now
Reflecting on a past moment when the speaker anticipated a future life.
Said that I'd be safe and I'm not gonna fail her
Expressing a commitment to ensuring the safety of someone important.
Welcome to the after
Introducing the theme of transitioning or entering a new phase, referred to as "the after."
Welcome to the after
Reiteration of the welcome to this new phase.
Working on a line that runs between our lives
Describing the effort to establish a connection between different life experiences.
And maybe if it's safe then I could ask a favor
Contemplating the possibility of seeking a favor if the connection is deemed safe.
Welcome to the after
Repeating the welcome to the after, emphasizing its significance.
Welcome to the after
Reiteration of the welcome to emphasize the importance of this new phase.
The fuck am I to do now
Expressing a sense of uncertainty and confusion about the current situation.
I'm all out of these vices
Acknowledging a depletion of coping mechanisms or distractions.
Maybe when I'm older
Speculating about finding better ways to handle silence in the future.
I'll discover ways to learn to hold a silence
Highlighting a potential journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
The fuck am I to be now
Expressing a sense of identity crisis or uncertainty about one's role.
Void of all emotion
Describing a state of emotional emptiness or numbness.
Tied up in the weight of trying to relate
Feeling overwhelmed by the burden of trying to connect with others.
But always in slow motion
Describing a perpetual feeling of moving slowly through life's challenges.
Welcome to the after
Reiteration of the welcome to the after, underscoring its significance.
Welcome to the after
Repeating the welcome to emphasize the importance of this new phase.
Once I made a count down to life beyond now
Recalling a past instance of anticipating a future life.
Felt like an escape from living like a stranger
Feeling like a departure from living as a stranger or outsider.
Welcome to the after
Reiteration of the welcome to this new phase.
Welcome to the after
Repeating the welcome to emphasize the significance of entering "the after."
Working on a line that runs between the timelines
Working on establishing a connection between different timelines or life experiences.
Give you just a taste of life in the next chapter
Offering a glimpse of what life in the next chapter may entail.
Welcome to the after
Reiteration of the welcome to the after, emphasizing its importance.
Welcome to the after
Repeating the welcome to underscore the significance of this new phase.
The fuck am I to do now
Expressing a sense of uncertainty and confusion about the current situation.

Acknowledging a depletion of coping mechanisms or distractions.
Maybe when I'm older
Speculating about finding better ways to handle silence in the future.
I'll discover ways to learn to hold a silence
Highlighting a potential journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
The fuck am I to be now
Expressing a sense of identity crisis or uncertainty about one's role.
Void of all emotion
Describing a state of emotional emptiness or numbness.
Tied up in the weight of trying to relate
Feeling overwhelmed by the burden of trying to connect with others.
But always in slow motion
Describing a perpetual feeling of moving slowly through life's challenges.
