Lyrics
Morning in the Afterlife
© 2014 Starburst
I carved a hole into a tree
And whispered secrets there
Then sealed it up with wet cement
So no one else could hear
I took a train through centuries
Beyond this place and time
To find the memories I've lost
Way past where man can climb
(chorus)
Its morning in the afterlife
The gods are still asleep
Now finally the mysteries
Reveal all that I seek
It's waking dreams and wanderlust
Where answers come to meet
Its morning in the afterlife
The gods are still asleep
I traced the tears of happenstance
Where mankind finally ends
Too delicate a fragile state
To separate true friends
(chorus)
Its morning in the afterlife
The gods are still asleep
Now finally the mysteries
Reveal all that I seek
(bridge)
So rest ye weary bones my friend
No worries here will last
I've come to shake the gods awake
I'm never going back
(chorus)
Its morning in the afterlife
The gods are still asleep
Now finally the mysteries
Reveal all that I seek
It's waking dreams and wanderlust
Where answers come to meet
Its morning in the afterlife
The gods are still asleep
