Something After All - Original Version (Demo)

When we were younger Walking through the rolling hills of home Those fields of Zundert Provided us with happiness alone Before the flowers turned to dirt Before the distance and the hurt We were stronger Together, we were stronger We'd stroll the paths each day Hum our hymns by the cafe Ev'ry bird sang along With the freedom from its song The caged bird would want something morе Its melody called me Its lullaby struck mе to my core As sure as the stars fill the night through which they shine I need to find a place, far beyond this gate of mine It's not my destiny to idle in these prison walls Where life seems empty, there is something after all When I got older And others tried to steer me the wrong way I became bolder The spark inside had turned into a flame After the laughter and the taunts From the critics and savants I had my brother At least I had my brother As sure as the stars fill the night through which they soar I'll break out of these chains, and I'll wander and explore I've given all I've got to feed the fire before night falls I need him to believe there is something after all My head is not chained to the ground My own thoughts rebel against me now No matter what we are, or where we go Theo, Theo Tell me you believe there is something after all
