Afterthought Songtext
von The Interrupters

Well, I guess you′re just another raindrop in the puddle of my pain
Dancing off the rooftops, down the gutter to the drain
And I'm the bolt of lightning tearing through your darkest skies
The storm on the horizon, speaking truth to all your lies

So, thank you for the heartbreak
Thank you for the pain
Thank you for the bruises
Thank you for my broken brain

′Cause I made it through the battle
Stronger than I used to be
And now you're just an afterthought
You're just an afterthought to me
Just an afterthought to me

After the sad songs of my childhood, you were a warm familiar tune (that′s right)
You cut me deeper than the ocean, then I poured whiskey in my wounds
Yeah, you tore me into pieces just to keep (just to keep) your demons fed (your demons fed)
You′re not the man my mama prayed for
You're who the devil (devil) sent instead


So, thank you for the heartbreak
Thank you for the pain
Thank you for the bruises
Thank you for my broken brain

′Cause I made it through the battle, stronger than I used to be
And now you're just an afterthought
You′re just an afterthought to me
Just an afterthought to me (let's go!)

Yeah!

Thank you for the heartbreak
Thank you for the pain
Thank you for the bruises
Thank you for my broken brain

′Cause I made it through the battle, stronger than I used to be
With the sword of an archangel always there defending me
From the fire on your tongue and the serpent in your eyes
You were always seeing red
I can't believe I'm still alive
Trying way too many nights to burn and kill those memories


And now you′re just an afterthought
You′re just an afterthought to me
You're just an afterthought to me
Yeah, I guess you′re just another raindrop
In the puddle of my pain
