aftermath
Jack & James Lyrics

There’s Nothing left for me to prove
I am confident in my abilities and don't feel the need to demonstrate anything further

I’ve been thinking lately
Recently, I have been reflecting on my thoughts and emotions

Maybe this is crazy
It is possible that what I'm about to say or do is unreasonable or irrational

But I don’t have anything to lose
I have no risks or disadvantages associated with this decision

Everything is changing
The current situation and circumstances are undergoing transformation

Look what we’re creating it’s
Observe what we're producing and its nature

Something better than
Whatever is being produced is superior to

What we ever planned
Any previous ideas, designs, or blueprints

Waiting for us in the aftermath
There is something worthwhile to be discovered, achieved, or experienced after this event or situation

So we start again
We will begin anew

Take it in our hands
We will assume control or responsibility for this situation or task

Building fires in the aftermath
We will ignite passion or energy in the wake of this event or situation

Just me and you
This experience or journey is being shared between only us

I was too afraid to fall
I was hesitant or anxious to fail

But when I lost control
But when I lost the ability to manage or direct the situation

Of what I tried to hold
The thing I tried to possess or maintain

On to I thought I’d never have it all
I believed that I could never attain or achieve everything I wanted

But now I see the/its possible
However, I have now realized that it is attainable or achievable

We can’t stop the world from turning
The unstoppable movement of time and progress cannot be prevented or controlled by us

People doing what they do
Individuals will act according to their own will or behavior

But when everything is burning
However, when everything is being destroyed or damaged

We’ll be building fires in the aftermath
We will act to rebuild, renew, or recreate after this event or situation
