[Chorus]

Afternoon

As I roam hoping

To put it behind

But just like last time

I wallow low within

Afternoon

Stay at home lonely

Can't put it behind

And just like last time

I hope for roads that end


[Verse 1]

It seems my will to live is fading

I try to block those thoughts, they keep invading

With this type of evil, there is no persuading

They infest your mind until you goin' crazy

I'm satisfied if things don't work out

It'll be okay 'cause I have a way out

Can't be a king 'til they lift that rain cloud

In the afternoon lonely, the voices scream loud


[Chorus]

Afternoon

As I roam hoping

To put it behind

But just like last time

I wallow low within

Afternoon

Stay at home lonely

Can't put it behind

And just like last time

I hope for roads that end


[Verse 2]

I control this day, ain't no god, no way

No one knows my fate, I don't got no faith

I could blow my brains out, I could choke in pain

Now, now... no, no — hold on, wait

I should think this through, so much to lose

Can't convince myself, momma, just me bring me to

The place where (Place where), you call me (You call)

I snap back, I cannot leave (Oh)


[Chorus]

Afternoon

As I roam hoping

To put it behind

But just like last time

I wallow low within

Afternoon

Stay at home lonely

Can't put it behind

And just like last time

I hope for roads that end
