Conclave

Your shadow, it used to be near me Say my love, I can picture you down here, in a haze Talking out loud, the nights could be weary Oh, but we were just kids And now I can't get you out alive Tell me, will I see you in the afterlife? Shooting my guns at everyone Telling myself it's hardly worth drinking here alone 'Cause you never hold me through my darkest nights But I would love you anyway, even in the afterlife The silence is creeping in slowly, a fade out The water, it was keeping me holy, as I wait How long have I got to walk alone? 'Cause it's not getting any easier And now I feel like I'm paralyzed Tell me, will I see you in the afterlife? Shooting my guns at everyone Telling myself it's hardly worth drinking here alone Because you never hold me through my darkest nights But I would love you anyway, even in the afterlife (Whatever you try to control, will eventually elude you) It's funny how the cold earth shakes Does it matter if we can't escape? I guess it's harder just to live with your mistakes If there's nowhere else to run Why don't you save yourself? I hope you never have to learn the hard way 'Cause you never hold me through my darkest nights But I would love you anyway, even in the afterlife
