after all this time Lyrics by Philippa Kinsky

smalltown stories - EP

[Verse 1]
It is funny how pleasure isn't bound to
Inner fulfillment like I always think it would
Every day I find myself doing things I hate myself for later on
Sometimes I'm not sure if I should be able to
Do whatever I wanna do
Honestly my will's just the opposite
To what'd be good for the mental health
Sometimes I am sure, pleasure isn't good
[Chorus]
Last night I thought I was free so I took it all in and now I'm
Not quite the person that it promised to be, it was just lies
Now I can't do without the pleasure
I can't do without the wine
I wonder if this is freedom 'cause I'm not free to dеcide
To let go after all this timе
[Verse 2]
Can somebody flush the toilet in my brain, take away all this shame
Take it all away, take it all away 'cause I can't
How can I ever pull myself out of quicksand?
No, nobody can
Deal with the shame and repentance
Oh, I wonder how everyone bears it
[Chorus]
'Cause last night I thought I was free so I took it all in and now I'm
Not quite the person that it promised to be, it was just lies
Now I can't do without the pleasure
I can't do without the wine
I wonder if this is freedom 'cause I'm not free to decide
To let go after all this time
[Outro]
Flush the toilet in my brain, take away all this shame
Take it all away, take it all away
How can I ever pull myself out of quicksand, quicksand?
Flush the toilet in my brain, take away all this shame
Take it all away, take it all away
'Cause I can't let go after all this time
