Hailing from Baltimore Maryland, After Forever was founded for the sole purpose of recreating through live performance the music of the legendary Black Sabbath. Comprised of veteran musicians, After Forever celebrates this music with a passion borne through nearly three decades of formal study, influence and outright fanaticism. We then employ gear and amplification that was designed to meet the tonal demands of Black Sabbath themselves.

After Forever Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A lonely heart can beat
You're too dangerous
A lonely heart can bleed
I cannot stand it, to be enclosed and isolated
A lonely heart can be enclosed but isolated
A lonely heart is weak
Too dependent
A broken heart will seek
You take the life out of me
No heart is broken forever
It's broken promises
But my faith is broken forever
Can't you believe that this power we feel can be for real?
The power that was given light now seems to freeze but why?
A lonely heart will break
Pressure will make me forsake you
A lonely heart won't forsake me
As if we're both the same
Wounded and beaten but still not defeated
A lonely heart can be wounded and beaten but still not defeated
'Cause I won't let you in
So if it's all for real
Your weakness will be my strength
Your heart should be melting
You might be lonely
But I am not beloved and bounded forever
Because we're all the same
Beloved and bounded forever
Can't you believe that this power we feel can be for real?
The smile that was given light now seems to freeze but why?
Won't you believe?
Won't you embrace it?
Can't you believe
The power between us?
Oh, discord, see them fail, oh
Won't you believe?
Won't you embrace it?
Can't you believe in the power between us?
Can't you believe that this power we feel can be for real?
The power that was given light now seems to freeze but why?
The lyrics of After Forever’s song “Discord” seem to address the issue of a person trying to end a toxic relationship but is struggling to do so. The first verse is an angry demand for the person to leave and stay away, followed by a declaration of how dangerous and unbearable the relationship is. The following lines express feelings of entrapment and weakness, and how the person has drained the singer to the point where they feel their faith is broken forever.
However, as the song progresses, the lyrics also express hope and strength, that the power between the two can be for real and valuable if embraced. There is an acknowledgment of the similarities and shared experiences between the two, despite their conflicts. The song ends with a plea to believe and embrace it, and to see discord fail.
Overall, the lyrics explore the complexities and struggles of trying to end a toxic relationship, balancing feelings of pain and power, entrapment and hope.
