Songtexte Aftermath - The Black Dahlia Murder

So here we are, you thought you've seen it all
Still amongst the living after the fall
The burning rock fell from the sky
Laid waste to old world, most did die

Roaming the fire, adapt to ash
Scavenging to survive
Time and pressure make us clash
Feeding off each other while we can
The decisions that we make beg the question, "Are we still human?"

Resources dwindle fast, the desperation haunts the land
Our morals crumble steadily
Sadly, our souls deteriorate

We'll soon expire
The threshold maxed
Arms in air, some do cry
Why, God, have You turned blind eye?

To think you've seen the worst
Brutal truth shall surely hurt
Existence may be a gift
But ever entwined with suffering

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Fooling ourselves for how much longer?
Pushing 'gainst nature's grain
Kidding ourselves that we're still sane
The shame, endless pain
Living in aftermath

Old world long gone
Those left the remnant insane
Carry on!

Sobbing as they chew
Recent allies become food
Slowly, man's flame dies out
No energy to shout

This world once majestic
Our lost nobility
Taking eyes for eyes
What's left of mankind no longer sees
Feeding on each other while we can
The decisions that we've made
There's no question, no longer human

To think you've seen the worst
Brutal truth shall surely hurt
Existence may be a gift
But ever entwined with suffering

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Fooling ourselves for how much longer?
Pushing 'gainst nature's grain
Kidding ourselves that we're still sane
The shame, endless pain
Living in aftermath
