Walk with me tonight Walk with me tonight To find what's after life
Submitted by Morgoth — Feb 26, 2026
We know now that in the early years of the twentieth century This world was being watched closely by intelligences greater than man's And yet as mortal as his own Did I find the blood inside my bones Reaching out into the great unknown? What a life, what a fucked up love we hold Polarized by what we can't control We have the chance to realize Are we the stars, or just the sky? We have the chance to find our eyes So are you coming with me? I'll go, whoa Hey, hey, hey I'll go, whoa Hey, hey, hey When you find the dust behind the sun You're alive, but so misunderstood We're so afraid to change our minds Are we the shark or just the prize? No, I'm not afraid to open wide So are you coming with me? I'll go, whoa Hey, hey, hey I'll go, whoa Climb the sky, or cauterize, or cauterize Golden eyes are better blind (Are better blind) I don't know what I'm meant to see, meant to see So I'll just hold my breath, and wait for gravity We don't know what we're meant to see, meant to see So we'll just hold our breath We don't know what we're meant to see, meant to see So we'll just hold our breath So we'll just hold our breath Now are you coming with me? I'll go, whoa (I'll go) I'll go, whoa Climb the sky, or cauterize, or cauterize Golden eyes are better blind (Are better blind) I'll go, I'll go, I'll go (Hey, hey, hey) I'll go, I'll go, I'll go Now are you coming with me? With me

I'm breaking static I'm changing my frequency If I don't speak out, then no one's listening But I won't live in vain, in vain We stand on the edge wondering, wondering If I take one step will I live, will I sink? We're dying for more every day, every day So count down from ten and jump when I say Zero, zero We're breaking static, just radio frequencies If we don't speak out, then there's no one listening Is anyone listening to me? We stand on the edge wondering, wondering If I take one step will I live, will I sink? We're dying for more every day, every day So count down from ten and jump when I say... We won't hesitate We won't close our eyes We won't turn away We're taking back our lives We won't hesitate We won't close our eyes We won't turn away We're taking back our lives for the first time For the first time (We won't hesitate We won't close our eyes We won't turn away) We stand on the edge wondering, wondering If I take one step will I live, will I sink? We're dying for more every day, every day So count down from ten and jump when I say Zero, zero, zero, zero

There's nothing I can't face, so open the flood gates No fear of what's to come I'm not going under, not running for cover Standing against the sun After the fire, after the flames Nothing will feel the same My scars are closing, my heart is open I am not afraid I'm ready to breathe again, I'm beginning to catch my breath I'm ready to dream again, surviving what left me for dead I had to bleed to lose Find myself to prove I could feel love without end I'm all that I have, I am the aftermath Show it no mercy, cause it cannot hurt me No more will I bite my tongue Tired of worthless fighting with purpose No longer will I stay numb After the fire, after the flames Nothing will feel the same My scars are closing, my heart is open I am not afraid I'm ready to breathe again, I'm beginning to catch my breath I'm ready to dream again, surviving what left me for dead I had to bleed to lose Find myself to prove I could feel love without end I'm all that I have, I am the aftermath Break my bones, you will see; You can't kill me, you can't kill me Break my bones, you will see; You can't kill me, you can't kill me You can't kill me I'm ready to breathe again, I'm beginning to catch my breath I'm ready to dream again, surviving what left me for dead I had to bleed to lose Find myself to prove I could feel love without end I'm all that I have, I'm all that I have I'm all that I have, I am the aftermath I am the aftermath (Aftermath) Break my bones, you will see; You can't kill me, you can't kill me Break my bones, you will see; You can't kill me, you can't kill me

Through your eyes I fight for gravity A place to stand, and a place to breathe When the walls begin to shake In the home you thought you knew Will you run? Will you stay? Will you choose? Do you know who I am? I’m so afraid you’ll never understand There’s a part of me still lost out there And I just want to know Yeah, I just want to know Am I becoming a hologram? Close your eyes from the darker side of things A shade of grey hidden under sheets When the walls begin to shake In the home you thought you knew Will you run? Will you stay? Will you choose? Do you know who I am? I’m so afraid you’ll never understand There’s a part of me still lost out there And I just want to know Yeah, I just want to know Am I becoming a hologram? Now I think I’m worried that I’m in too deep Like a phantom that you’ll never see So I just want to know Yeah I just want to know Am I a part of the hologram? [Sample from Plan 9 from Outer Space ] You have seen this incident based on sworn testimony. Can you prove that it didn't happen? Perhaps on your way home someone will pass you in the dark, and you will never know it, for they will be from outer space Shadowed in time, another road redefined, redefined Shadowed in time, another road redefined, redefined Redefined Do you know who I am? I’m so afraid you’ll never understand There’s a part of me still lost out there And I just want to know Yeah, I just want to know Am I becoming a hologram? Now I think I’m worried that I’m in too deep Like a phantom that you’ll never see So I just want to know Yeah I just want to know Am I a part of the hologram? Shadowed in time, another road redefined, redefined Shadowed in time, another road redefined, redefined

Are you hanging on my words tonight? Don't you get it? Don't you get it? Hold your breath and everything's just fine Don't you get it? Forgotten we can be alone if we waste away, waste away If there's a love that brings us home, and drowns away We smile, we grind our teeth away Good luck forgot to call our names Good God Lucky us No one's hanging on our words tonight Don't you get it? Don't you get it? You can try, but you won't change their minds Don't forget it Burned in the sun Afraid of what you've become You'll pay the price when you burn, you'll see Tell me who you want to be Tell me what you want to see We smile, we grind our teeth away Good luck forgot to call our names Good God Tortured, but no one leads the way Force-fed like rats inside a maze Good God Lucky us Are you hanging on my words tonight? Don't you get it? Don't you get it? Hold your breath and everything's just fine Don't you get it? Don't you get it? We smile, we grind our teeth away Good luck forgot to call our names Good God Tortured, but no one leads the way Force-fed like rats inside a maze Good God Lucky us

You've been doing what you like Thinking that you're always right You can hold your breath 'Cause I won't hold mine You wouldn't care if it killed me Misunderstood when you're guilty No you can bite your tongue 'Cause I won't bite mine It's all so complicated The way we're built to break it I think it's overrated I'm sick, I'm sick I'm sick of the weight of the world I'm so, so sick I'm so, so sick Now you think you've won this time Thinking life was yours to buy But you should wonder why You can't sleep at night You wouldn't care if it killed me Misunderstood when you're guilty No you can bite your tongue 'Cause I won't bite mine this time It's all so complicated The way we're built to break it I think it's overrated I'm sick, I'm sick I'm sick of the weight of the world Don't need your validation Your drawn out dedication I think it's overrated I'm sick, I'm sick I'm sick of the weight of the world I'm so, so sick I'm so, so sick I'm so, so sick I'm so sick It's all so complicated The way we're built to break it I think it's overrated I'm sick, I'm sick I'm sick of the weight of the world Don't need your validation Your drawn out dedication I think it's overrated I'm sick, I'm sick I'm sick of the weight of the world I'm so, so sick I'm so, so sick I'm so, so sick I'm so sick

I fill these bones with hollow promises I can feel the world outside under my skin And all these walls are slowly caving in I would climb if I could find my way again It feels so close, yet so far gone It feels so close, but still I'm looking for a sign of life behind the sky Is anybody there? Does anybody care? A sign of life to redefine Is anybody there? Cause I just need a sign of life Can I go on? I'm lost without a trace Am I afraid to hold the light and lead the way? I may be wrong, and I'm a face without a name But I'm alive and I can see I'm not the same It feels so close, yet so far gone It feels so close, but still I'm looking for a sign of life behind the sky Is anybody there? Does anybody care? A sign of life to redefine Is anybody there? I'm fighting for a sign of life I'm looking for a way out, 'cause I'm way out and I'm on my own I'm looking for a way out, 'cause I'm way out and I'm on my own I'm looking for a way out, 'cause I'm way out and I'm on my own I'm looking for a way out, 'cause I'm way out I'm looking for a sign of life behind our eyes Is anybody there? Does anybody care? A sign of life to redefine Is anybody there? Does anybody care? A sign of life behind our eyes Is anybody there? I'm fighting for a sign of life

The chemicals I think they're telling us we're not alone The molecules They're taking shape until we let them go Breathe you in, breathe you out When it's all too much Breathe you in, breathe you out You're my one true drug I can hardly wait to float above the angels I'm high again off your oxygen Calling in the dark, you pull me through the stars I'm so high again off your oxygen There's something changing inside the way I see The air I thought that I needed is just a memory So captivated inside a world we dreamed Breathe you in, breathe you out When it's all too much Breathe you in, breathe you out You're my one true drug I can hardly wait to float above the angels I'm high again off your oxygen Calling in the dark, you pull me through the stars I'm so high again The chemicals I think they're telling us we're not alone The chemicals I think they're telling us we're not alone I can hardly wait to float above the angels I'm high again off your oxygen Calling in the dark, you pull through the stars I'm so high again off your oxygen

Say hello to the night Let order and chaos fill your eyes Brave a fear in your mind Walk into the afterlife Afterlife (x4) The colors fly like gold in my hands With open eyes, I'm starting again Before you go, I think you should know The world is your kaleidoscope Break the sequence of hate There's nowhere but up to go, so follow close And you'll see the dawn of an age Where pillars have turned to stone, and martyrs pave the way The colors fly like gold in my hands With open eyes, I'm starting again Before you go, I think you should know The world is your kaleidoscope (x2) Afterlife (x4) Say hello to the night Let order and chaos fill your eyes
