Aftertones letra

Sometimes it’s all too much to say aloud
The sound’s a shroud
The meaning's crowd
Sometimes the words are painful to the ear
They disappear
And nothing’s clear

Till all that’s left to me are aftertones
I take them home
We live alone
But I remember chains of melody
It pleases me
This song’s for free

Within the memories of our life gone by
Afraid to die
We learn to lie
And measure out the time in coffee spoons
In fading suns
And dying moons

Till all that’s left to see are aftertones
And no one knows
Where meaning goes
But I remember chains of melody
It pleases me
This song’s for free

And do I like the sound
Of harmony from time to time?
I really do believe
In some kind of tomorrow
When it speaks to me
