Afterlife
Xylo Lyrics

I'm bad luck baby, you know
I feel like I'm cursed and everything in my life seems to go wrong.

Follows me around everywhere I go
My bad luck seems to be a constant presence in my life and I can't escape it.

And I don't need your sympathy, no
I don't want pity from anyone.

I need a fuckin' miracle, oh
I'm in a desperate situation and need something miraculous to happen to change it.

Red wine teeth stain, it's been a long day
I've had a tough day and I've been drinking red wine, which has stained my teeth.

I just want your love, not your money
I don't care about your money, I just want your love.

Leave me here, I'll be fine
I don't need anyone's help, I can handle things on my own.

I'll wait for the stars to align
I'm waiting for things to fall into place and for everything to work out perfectly.

'Cause oh, how the other half live
Other people seem to have perfect lives and I envy them.

With their perfect skin
Other people seem to have flawless skin and it makes me feel insecure about my own appearance.

And oh, how I'll never be, never be
I'll never be able to live up to the standards of perfection that other people seem to embody.

Just like them, so
I want to be like other people who seem to have it all together.

I, I, I'm waiting for the afterlife
I'm waiting for a life after death because I feel like this life is not good enough.

To show me a good time, baby
I hope that the afterlife will be better than this life and I'll finally be happy.

Somebody save me, I just wanna be loved
I want someone to rescue me and show me the love that I need to feel fulfilled.

Don't watch TV no more
I don't watch TV anymore because it's full of bad news and it scares me.

The news fuckin' scares me, new world war
The news is full of stories about war and violence and it makes me anxious about the future.

And I don't wanna run away, no
I don't want to escape from my problems by running away.

I need a fuckin' holiday
I need a break from the stress and anxiety of my everyday life.

So bad blood bankrupt out of love and luck
I've had some bad experiences in my life that have left me feeling drained and without hope.

I'll get the keys to your Murciélago
I'll take your expensive car as a way to escape from my problems for a while.

Another drink will see me through
I'll have another drink to help me forget about my problems for a while.

Feeling invincible
I feel like nothing can stop me and I'm in control of my life.

With their perfect teeth
Other people seem to have perfect teeth, which makes me feel insecure about my own appearance.

We're still young, but we got older
We're getting older every day, even though we still feel young.

We don't believe everything that we're told, yeah
We're skeptical of what we're told by others and we question everything.

We just wanna love, we just wanna be loved
All we really want in life is to love and be loved in return.

I, I, I'm waiting for the afterlife
I'm still hoping that the afterlife will bring me the happiness and love that I haven't found in this life.

To show me a good time, baby
I'm hoping that the afterlife will finally give me the happiness and fulfillment that I've been searching for.

Somebody save me, I just wanna be loved
I'm hoping that someone will rescue me from my problems and show me the love that I need to feel happy and fulfilled.
