After This Night Lyrics by Anthony Robustelli

Comfort Is So Rare

2000

No commercial formats
Everyone adores the smile on your face
That quickly turns into a sneer
When their backs are turned and you're laughin’ loud
Knowing they can't hear
I hope I'm not one of those
Who falls into the abyss
Although we appear so damn distant within a crowd
We’re still closest when we kiss
Selfishness has taken control of both of our hearts
The words we exchange have torn our world apart
You think that all you say gathers so much weight
You think you're so intense
It's time to realize it's all a pretense
After this night I know in my heart we'll have to stop the game
Sleeping in separate beds
You hardly ever speak my name
After this night I'm afraid to say I'd be afraid and alone
Although we haven't spoken much except for the endless drone
After this night we’ll hang our heads or maybe hang ourselves
It’s better to be with someone you despise than to live alone in hell
As we walk hand in hand
Tightly clenching our fists
Tryin' to keep up the mystery
That we once called bliss
The worthless thing we once called love
Has died a slow and painful death
And I hear the quick obscenities you whisper underneath your bated breath
Unfortunately we have one final affair to attend
The happy loving couple we’re expected to pretend
But a few too many drinks bring out the heart-wrenching tale
My blood spilled on the carpet as your arms furiously flex and flail
After this night I know in my heart we'll have to stop the game
Sleeping in separate beds
You hardly ever speak my name
After this night I'm afraid to say I'd be afraid and alone
Although we haven’t spoken much except for the endless drone
After this night we'll hang our heads or maybe hang ourself
It's better to be with someone you despise after livin' alone in hell
[5:35 PM]
After this night I know in my heart we'll have to stop the game
Sleeping in separate beds
You hardly ever speak my name
After this night I'm afraid to say I'll be afraid and alone
Though we haven't spoken much except for the endless drone
After this night we'll hang our heads or maybe hang ourselves
It's better to be with someone you despise than to live alone in hell
