Captain High Top - Afterglow Lyrics

Sadness makes for such meaningful art
Has anyone thought why
It's better to be sad and cry
Than happy to live a lie?
Don't follow the group
Lead them all your way
Ask why in everything they say
I'm telling you we'll make it
We'll feel the heat from the rays
But our souls aren't ice
We'll live to see the day

Life is so precious and
Something taken for granted is always so valuable
Looking over our town
Birds in a cage
Mirrors reflect the walls of your room
Never knew there could be more
More to the story they write for you

Out of the sky my head inflates
The thoughts of truth within me shake
It's better to be without time
Than to run through this life blind
Go to the crossroads with a choice to make
Left or right is better to take?
They go left victim to the snake
We'll go right just to stay awake

Life is so precious and
Something taken for granted is always so valuable
Looking over our town
Birds in a cage
Mirrors reflect the walls of your room
Never knew there could be more
More to the story they write for you
Never knew there could be more
More to the life outside your view
Never knew there could be more
The reflection staring back at you
