Afterlife

i came as soon as i could
didn't know when but i knew that you would
you weren't born in disguise
i'll only go if i must
got an itch can't wish it away
pick me up like a Warratah wave
it's not the fear when i stop
but what i'm making it mean

i won't wait
i do what i have to do to make it right
why be him
be anyone but yourself and die inside
in an afterlife

who am i when i look at your face
who are you when i look in your eyes
only seeing myself
what i'm making it mean?
it's there in every face:
who am i, how long have i got?
do you think about me like i think about you?

i won't wait
i do what i have to do to make it right
why be him
be anyone but yourself and die inside
in an afterlife
