What is coming? What will the new after be? Do we wait for it, search for it, or create it?

lyrics

To the after go
To the later show
Find a further on and on and on you'll search the snow
In the after shine
Shylight's yours and mine
Glitter gives its time and finally becomes the fine
At the after fall
Waltzing at the ball
We'll dress our daring doll and fall in for our curtain call

To the after go
Where we'll long last know
Here we land and crow allegro in our audio
Want to rest a while
Miled my last hard smile
Need to know if there's a stop to all this starting trial
Where'd the after go
It was here I know
Saw it showing me my place to face the last ten rows

Searcher souls seek out the snappy ending
Pacing prayers for the rest that's pending
Back to order when there's no one to give the order
Only we can camp here for a style and build it while
We are looking
For what's after

Places found and glossed
Homebound lines are crossed
The dross of being lost is tossed upon the powder moss
Keep on leaping on
Steeping each pale dawn
Brewing bliss by making lists of what I had to pawn
After's all I know
Now is tomorrow
The future's apropos of plateau shadows to outgrow

Still for waiting still
Waiting to be still
These silver stalactites greeting growls to me
Then I feel your brush
In the purple cave waving after waves you gave
To me
They'll keep me flowing in my knowing
We can flourish out of rocks

Planting while I walk
Dancing after shock
Build a new world on the asphalt where the fields will flock
Normal's over now
We can thrive somehow
Giving up our ever after happy after vows
When the smoke won't clear
You should know I'm here
Loving you and all for after ever thousand years

Beauty will be found
Sad souls sing that sound
Turning nocturnes into preludes that can now resound
In the new hello
In the after show
We'll hold each other after
After we'll begin to glow
