Afterlife

I'm used to being right
Paint pictures every night
Make people fall in love with the out of line
Like shadows in the light
Slip away and hide
I drown with my demons

I know I'm not gonna face it and I don't know why
'Cause I'm the arsonist in a forest fire

Help me, I'm running my mind, the search for solid ground
I've been building things up, I need to tear them down
I wanna give up the ghost
Stand here exposed, color us underlined
Yeah! And light up my afterlife

And tryna play it safe, we talk to medicate
Why d'you think so many of us waste away?
It's necessary evil, now take another needle
Always standin' in my own way

You know I wanna face it but I don't know how
I'm the prison guard and the runway out

Help me, I'm running my mind, the search for solid ground
I've been building things up, I need to tear them down
I wanna give up the ghost
Stand here exposed, color us underlined
Yeah! And light up my afterlife
Light up my afterlife

I'm the arsonist in a forest fire
And I might suffocate but at least I try
Help me, I'm running my mind, the search for solid ground
I've been building things up, I need to tear them down

Help me, I'm running my mind, the search for solid ground
I've been building things up, I need to tear them down
I wanna give up the ghost
Stand here exposed, color us underlined
Yeah! And light up my afterlife
Light up my afterlife
I light up my afterlife

(I light up my afterlife)
