Again After

Again After - toothbrusher2000

Lyrics by：Etta Gerrits

Composed by：Etta Gerrits

The air is dead

We're all back to being sad about it

I'd forgotten the smell

But I knew it then and I know it now

Hot tub water

Rubbing my hands together

And we're gonna be sad

Then we're gonna be happy again after

When the sun hits

You remember how orange everything gets

When your teeth grit

You're reminded that you know everything ends

On a night walk

Like the one that I took late last fall

And I thought here I'd feel it

But I don't at all

Like a bike ride

Past the lilacs in the May twilight

When the world was ending

Different ways and years but still the same time

And your favorite album's playing

From a different time it's waving

And I'm reaching back and taking

Whatever I can for saving

It's a ruin of what I once felt

It's a flash card for something else

It's a wheel on your dad's first car

It's a repeat when you're pulling a card

It's a tunnel filled in again

It's a puddle showing your reflection

It's a dream and you can wake up at night

It's a photo of when you were nine

It's your breath showing like a vision

It's the water evaporating in sun

It's the cycle of baby rabbits

They don't learn from their own habits
