Lyrics The End and Everything After - Johnny Foreigner

The End and Everything After

I guess the bar staff see this every night
They’re turning tables putting candles out, careless and tired
And all dramas lie unstarted
Came for the money, stayed for the community
And now our funds are tight and now we chose our sides.
We make the same mistakes our friends might
We’re throwing streamers down off balconies,
scattered arcs across the city, makes a new body cold.
How you don’t stop believing in the band
(Last hit for sure)
Just cause the band stopped believing in the band
(Once was enough)
Oh, careless hands, we were made of plans
(From? to one night stands, when everything stands, we were made of plans)
Backdrop set to falling stars does not describe what we are
And god knows what you think of us
I’m losing ground to future ghosts,
I know that we’re good and I know that I’m close
But god knows what you think of us.
Now we sleep crooked if we sleep at all
We squeeze our bodies into spaces where the spaces are filled
And these blisters from our shattered arcs across the city
Makes a new body
And now the pressure’s on and I still sleep alone
We barely notice that our friends are gone
(No!)
We’re chaining cigarettes to pass the time
Coward, dazed by the money, trapped by community
How you don’t stop believing in the band
(Last hit for sure)
Just cause the band stopped believing in the band
(Once was enough)
Oh, careless hands, we were made of plans
(From? to one night stands, when everything stands, we were made of plans)
Fake reports of faulty heart does not describe what you were
And god knows what you’d think of us
I’m losing ground to future ghosts,
I know that I’m good and I know that I’m close
But god knows what you think of us.
Once was enough
Yeah, once was enough
