Arcade Fire - After Life Before Symmetry Lyrics

{Track 1: Afterlife}

[Verse 1]
Afterlife, oh my God, what an awful word
After all the breath, and the dirt, and the fires are burnt
And after all this time, and after all the ambulances go
And after all the hangers-on are done hanging on to the dead light
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know

[Chorus]
Can we work it out?
We scream and shout till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
Scream and shout till we work it out?
Till we work it out, till we work it out
Till we work it out, till we work it out

[Verse 2]
Afterlife, I think I saw what happens next
Oh, it was just a glimpse of you, likе looking through a window
Or a shallow sea
Could you see me?
And after all this timе
It's like nothing else we used to know
And after all the hangers-on are done hanging on to the dead light
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know
[Chorus]
Can we work it out?
We scream and shout till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
We scream and shout till we work it out?

[Bridge]
But you say, oh
When love is gone
Where does it go?
And you say, oh
When love is gone
Where does it go?
And where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?

[Verse 3]
And after this
Can we last another night?
After all the bad advice
Had nothing at all to do with life
I've gotta know
[Chorus]
Can we work it out?
We scream and shout till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
Scream and shout till we work it out?

[Bridge]
But you say, oh
When love is gone
Where does it go?
And you say, oh
When love is gone
Where does it go?
Oh, we know it's gone, but where did it go?
Oh, we know it's gone, but where did it go?
And where do we go?

[Break]
Oh, oo oo oo, oo oo oo
Oh, oo oo oo, oo oo oo


[Outro]
Is this the afterlife?
It's just an afterlife
It's just an afterlife with you
It's just an afterlife
{Track 2: Supersymmetry}

[Verse 1]
I know you're living in my mind
It's not the same as being alive
I know you're living in my mind
It's not the same as being alive

[Hook]
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry

[Verse 2]
If telling the truth is not polite
Then I guess you'll have to fight
If telling the truth is not polite
Then I guess we'll have to fight

[Hook]
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry

[Verse 3]
I lived for a year, in the bed by the window
Reading books, better than memories
Wanna feel the seasons passing
Wanna feel the spring

[Hook]
Of supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry

[Verse 4]
It's been a while since I've been to see you
I don't know where, but you're not with me
Heard a voice, like an echo
But it came from me

[Hook]
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry (supersymmetry)
Supersymmetry (supersymmetry)
Supersymmetry (supersymmetry)

[Bridge]
Ah, lalala lala
Ah, lalala lala
Ah, lalala lala
Ah, lalala lala

[Hook]
