Release
After All Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We take control
Stand firm, be proud
Suffer well, not lose control
Break the spell
And we’ll create
A heaven within a hell

Turning inside out
Breaking all the rules
Ending cold within
Because no one really cares
We’re bending the truth
And making you insane
So falling down is easy
In a grave which no one shares

I’ll hope you’ll see the light
Enjoy reality
I’ll hope you’ll fight the fight
And sell your memories

Release me
Don’t want to be
Your soulless device

Come and spread the word
And write your history
Claim your victory
Eternal misery
Drown in endless love
Play the game in full
Push it underground
Remain unsatisfied

Stand firm, be proud
Suffer well, not lose control
We’ll break the spell
And we’ll create




A heaven within a hell
We take control, suffer well

They’re going to have to fill in some blanks because there’s not much left of the story. There’s basically one event & then a bunch of abrupt time jumps. It’s all resolve…the movie’s going to need more conflict.
