After Me, the Flood
Partly influenced by Regina Spektor’s Après Moi
What is the story about?
Who is the story about?
Gasps!
“We will end up in the grave, at least it was brave”
We contrived the final crescendo
Long before we wrote the first word,
The first word that we uttered nonchalantly
Without missing a single beat
Meat, bleep, glitch. Switch, bitch!
You can’t break that which isn’t yours
I can be broken, which mistake isn’t yours?
Yours bore, you.
I still am afraid of the lame that I am
The game, the dame, the blame
— of/to mine
The casket inside the catacomb
With a gown, adorned heart refused to be made of stone
nach mir die Flut
dopo di me il diluvio
après moi, le déluge
