Texty: Todd Carey. After The Morning After.

After the lights have all turned on
After everyone has gone
It's too late, late to call home
The charge is dying on my phone
After I put down my guitars
And they're closing out the bar
And the last words on the set
And I'm all alone in bed
With a ringing in my ears
The flirting of my fears
And I can barely stand hung-over from the adrenaline

After the morning after
After the dying laughter
I'm left with what really matters
And my confidence is shattered
After the moment passes
Lipstick on empty glasses
Wonder if this really matters
And my confidence is shattered
And I'm trying to get to bed to do it all over again

Yeah, yeah, all over again, yeah, yeah

After the last drink has been served
After the last sound has been heard
The band is standing on the curb
And I've heard more praise than I deserve
Its time, the loading of the van
And all the small talk I can stand
After all the high fives
For the music keeping us alive
Still this ringing in my ears, passing days like years
And I can barely stand, hung-over from the adrenaline

After the morning after
After the dying laughter
I'm left with what really matters
And my confidence is shattered
After the moment passes
Lipstick on empty glasses
Wonder if this really matters
And my confidence is shattered
And I'm trying to get to bed to do it all over again

If you could only see
How much there is to me
That's hidden underneath this love I'm dying to keep
My voice and satellite screaming through the night
That's ringing in your ears, that's soaking up your tears
And I'm trying to get to bed to do it all over again

After the morning after
After the dying laughter
I'm left with what really matters
And my confidence is shattered
After the moment passes
Lipstick on empty glasses
Wonder if this really matters
And my confidence is shattered
And I'm trying to get to bed to do it all over again
