[Verse 1]

Bend into the breeze

Accept this gentle hand, and follow me

To trees all rusted red

The yellows express to us we’ll all be

Dead and born again in such a short amount of time

The bowing of our heads into the ever-failing light


[Chorus]

We have all been scared to lose our glow

After all, after all

The illusion’s dance, there’s no control

After all, after all


[Verse 1]

Lean into the eve

Accept that there’s no plan, and follow me

On a night awash with stars

The glitter of our collarbones, the lights of cars

Streaming by with no one inside


[Chorus]

We have all been scared to lose our glow

After all, after all

The illusion’s dance, there’s no control

After all, after all


[Bridge]

Feel the wind, it’s palms pushing you along

All the leaves that fall

They will pile into a song, pile into a song


[Pre-Chorus]

We’ll live, we’ll love, and live again

‘Til there’s nothing left to give


[Chorus]

We have all been scared to lose our glow

After all, after all

The illusion’s dance, there’s no control

After all, after all


[Post-Chorus]

We’ll live, we’ll love, and live again

‘Til there’s nothing left to give
