The Interrupters - Afterthought

 The Interrupters - Afterthought

Well I guess you’re just another raindrop
In the puddle of my pain
Dancing off the rooftops, down the gutter
To the drain
And I’m the bolt of lightning 
Tearing through your darkest skies 
The storm on the horizon, speaking truth 
To all your lies
So thank you for the heartbreak 
Thank you for the pain, thank you for the bruises
Thank you for my broken brain
Cuz I made it through the battle stronger than I used to be
And now you’re just an afterthought 
You’re just an afterthought to me 
After the sad songs of my childhood
You were a warm familiar tune
You cut me deeper than the ocean
Then I poured whiskey in my wounds 
Yea you tore me into pieces just to keep your demons fed
You’re not the man my mama prayed for
You’re who the devil sent instead 
So thank you for the heartbreak
Thank you for the pain, thank you for the bruises
Thank you for my broken brain
Cuz I made it through the battle stronger than I used to be
And now you’re just an afterthought
You’re just an afterthought to me
… I made it through the battle stronger than i used to be
With the sword of an archangel always there defending me 
From the fire on your tongue and the serpent in your eyes
You were always “seeing red” I can’t believe I’m still alive
Trying way too many nights to burn and kill those memories 
And now you’re just an afterthought, you’re just an afterthought to me…
Yea I guess you’re just another raindrop in the puddle of my pain
