Town Destroyer - Afterthoughts Lyrics

All good things must come to an end but my voice resides in you
And only when you decide to let it die will I be released from within
The voices must be louder in my heart than in my head if I am to commit
Can you not feel your body decay? It's giving up on me
I was born with this cancer, I know it's disaster for me
Swallow my anxiety to the pit of me
What's been so controlling?
Does it go without knowing? Haven't you heard
Oh god I'm so forgetful, but you always remind me that this life's not about me
Attachment to this life will only hold you back
My eyes are set forward, but I can never see what's in front of me
I've heard the next place will be everlasting
I'm there when I sleep
That's the place I want to be
Take my remaining breaths away from me
Give me a release from this broken body
You can take everything because you only get back what you give
So tell me, what have you given
Devour my soul
The ground devours what you'll never miss
Let the roots take hold
Let the wind carry my soul away
Tell me what remains
Will my memories fade
Tell me what remains
Will your memory fade
The voices must be louder in my heart than in my head if I am to commit
Can you not feel your body decay? It's giving up on me
I was born this cancer, I know it's disaster for me
Swallow my anxiety to the pit of me
What's been so controlling?
Does it go without knowing? Haven't you heard
Oh god I'm so forgetful, but you always remind me that this life's not about me
All good things must come to an end but my voice resides in you
And only when you decide to let it die will I be released from within
