After Dark - Horrorshow, Hayley Mary

Now I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

Nothing will ever be the same

Said I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

Nothing will ever be the same

What do you say when words fail?

When there’s no cure for what ails

No, they won’t heal, to no avail

When the phone rings and it hits home

'Cause it’s so real, we so frail

Curtailed, we can’t deal

Words can’t capture when the heart fractures

Or what it sounds like when the hourglass shatters

All that matters is that we keep moving forward and never backwards

The moon pulls the tide as it wanes and it waxes

The world is but a stage, you and I, we are just actors

Life is but a story and we only get a chapter

And that fact alone, might be enough when times are tough

To pick us up and light the way and guide us home

Twisting and a-turning while we living and a-learning

So we keep the candle burning, knowing you won’t be returning

Now I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

Nothing will ever be the same

Said I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

Nothing will ever be the same

Ain’t it a shame, when we all look so nice

In our shirts and ties

That we just came to say

Goodbye, and so I pray

We meet in paradise

By the candlelight

But I just came to say

Goodbye

Twisting and a-turning

While we living and a-learning

Keep that candle burning

Knowing you won’t be returning

Always twisting and a-turning

Always twisting and a-turning

While we living and a-learning

While we living and a-learning

So we keep that candle burning

So we keep that candle burning

Knowing you won’t be returning

Knowing you won’t be returning

Now I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

And the wind is howling, blowing out your flame

Till a fading memory is that all that remains

Nothing will ever be the same

Now I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

And I hope you make it back to whence we came

Where before we were as one, now torn in twain

Nothing will ever be the same

Now I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

Nothing will ever be the same

Said I’m walking through the park, after dark

And I’m calling out your name

Nothing will ever be the same
