After

After, after love, after love forsaken
Tell me what's left, tell me what's right
After, after life, after life mistaken
Tell me what's left, tell me what's right

Feed the fire, feed the flame
Something for nothing, playing the game
Your hungry heart, your restless soul
Is old for a scepter, you gotta let go
All around you are calling 'round
But now where's your company, yeah
Feed the fire, watch and see
It's looking like World War III

After the sky has fallen, after the river raged
At dawn the dreamer wakens
To see what's left, to see what's right
After, after the world has crumbled
After the stars have tumbled
Tell me what's left, tell me what's right, yeah

Feed the fire, feed the flame
Over and over, again and again
Your hungry heart, your restless soul
You got it for nothing, you gotta let go
They repossess your posh address
'Cause you can't pay their fee, yeah
Feed the fire from the balcony
Looking down on World War III

Burn my body, freeze my brain
In fifty years I wanna live again
In stainless steel, on a slowly spinning wheel
Ooh, hereafter, woah-oh-oh
You might have a second chance
But I don't have a second mind
I don't have a second chance
I don't have a second mind
On second thought, it might be just as well
Ooh, hereafter

Feed the fire
Over and over
Hungry hearts and jealous souls
The shotgun is waiting
You gotta let go
Let go

Feed the fire with the family tree
We're starting up World War III
Starting up World War III
We're starting up
We're starting up
World War III

After the vow is spoken
After our hearts are broken
After the guns are smoking
Tell me what's left, what's right

Feed the fire, feed the flame
Get on the train, and I'm not to blame
The food's eaten hard, the moments old
The corporate profession, they all gotta go

After the river's caressing
After the plane's investing
After we launch the rockets, burn the forests, damn the oceans
Tell me what's left, tell me what's right
Tell me what's left, tell me what's right
'Cause I don't know anymore
