Afterlife Lyrics by Amaranthe

The Nexus

2013

[Verse 1: Jake E. Lundberg, Andreas Solveström, Elize Ryd]
Break me free, there is no return
It's the start of my rebirth
But as I glow just like a firefly
Time creates a vortex ride
Let it out of my sanity
It's a source of my serenity
I'm half the man I used to be
I still resent insanity

[Pre-Chorus: Elize Ryd & Jake E. Lundberg, Andreas Solveström]
Walking in circles as I open up my eyes
It's like I never stop, then I wake up

[Chorus: Elize Ryd & Jake E. Lundberg]
So wake me up to an everlasting afterlife
It is designed from the secrets I hide
So set me free and this time you'll be electrified
The future leaves nothing behind, it's my afterlife

[Verse 2: Jake E. Lundberg, Andreas Solveström, Elize Ryd]
Hear me scream, I break the seal
An impulse of me revived
And as I fill my lungs, it's hard to breathe
Like I was born inside a dream
Welcome home, you are not alone
And no longer on your own
I'm half the man I used to be
A second life infesting me

[Pre-Chorus: Elize Ryd & Jake E. Lundberg, Andreas Solveström]
Walking in circles as I open up my eyes
It's like I never stop, then I wake up

[Chorus: Elize Ryd & Jake E. Lundberg]
So wake me up to an everlasting afterlife
It is designed from the secrets I hide
So set me free and this time you'll be electrified
The future leaves nothing behind, it's my afterlife
(It's my afterlife)

[Breakdown: Andreas Solveström]
As I wake up, they're dissecting me
Can't see, can't breathe, in this reality
Synthetic Christ machine
I'm forced to live with abnormality

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus: Elize Ryd & Jake E. Lundberg, Andreas Solveström]
Walking in circles as I open up my eyes
It's like I never stop, then I wake up

[Chorus: Elize Ryd & Jake E. Lundberg]
So wake me up to an everlasting afterlife
It is designed from the secrets I hide
So set me free and this time you'll be electrified
The future leaves nothing behind, it's my afterlife
