After the Fall
Echoes of Psychedelic Nights: Unveiling the Depths of 'After the Fall'
Lyrics
Hey Remember all those
Reflecting on past experiences
psychedelic nights
Nights characterized by psychedelic experiences
When your head come loose
Describing a sensation of losing control
and floated into the lights
Imagining a detached head in the lights
And all them girls
Recalling women without tops
without any tops at all
Reference to a carefree or uninhibited environment
Down in the dirt uhhh huhh
Reflecting on experiences after a downfall
After the Fall
Reiterating the theme of decline or failure
And Remember how all the
Recalling past fantasies
fantasies worked
Noting flags in front of homes by the church
Little flags in front of the tract homes
Commenting on the mundane nature of suburban life
by the church
Expressing surprise at the resilience of anything to hurt
It's a wonder anything's left
Revisiting experiences in a degraded state
to hurt at all
Reiterating the aftermath of a fall
Down in the dirt uhhh huhh
Returning to the theme of decline or failure
After the Fall
Emphasizing the consequences after the fall
Yea
Indicating agreement or affirmation
Remember the flower children
Recalling the flower children and their demeanor
and their shit-eating grins
Describing the flower children's carefree expressions
Wearing buckskin building teepees
Commenting on attempts to adopt a Native American lifestyle
trying to be Indians
Recalling the reservation and its inhabitants
An Remember the reservation
Reflecting on the struggles of those against the wall
with the drunks against the wall
Describing the selling of trinkets to tourists
Peddling turquoise to the tourists
Reiterating experiences in a degraded state
Down in the dirt uhhh huhh
Returning to the theme of decline or failure
After the Fall
Emphasizing consequences after the fall
Remember the Holy Road
Recalling the Holy Road and its significance
running red
Describing a road stained with mystic experiences
With blood from the mouths of mystics
Portraying mystics speaking about consuming flesh
when they said
Describing a scenario involving Jesus
"Let's eat flesh from the knees of Jesus
Quoting mystics suggesting a controversial act
while he crawls"
Highlighting consequences after the fall
Down in the dirt uhhh huhh
Returning to the theme of decline or failure
After the Fall
Emphasizing consequences after the fall
Yeah
Expressing agreement or affirmation
Remember the Christian Soldiers
Recalling Christian Soldiers armed under the stars
armed to the teeth beneath the stars
Describing soldiers observing destruction
Watching the jungle burn
Depicting the jungle burning as a spectacle
from beside their armored cars
Reflecting on witnessing historical events on TV
We saw it all on TV
Noting the consumption of information
while we ate just what we saw
Connecting personal actions to historical events
So we could partake in history
Describing participation in historical events
without our names on the Wall or
Expressing a desire to remain anonymous
Down in the dirt uhhh huhh
Emphasizing consequences after the fall
After the Fall
Repeating the theme of decline or failure
(repeat first verse)
Reiteration of the first verse
