One of Australia’s biggest Metalcore-acts, The Amity Affliction, released their seventh studio album ‘Everyone Loves You….Once You Leave Them’ yesterday. The day before, the band shared a new video for the song ‘Forever’:
It’s about what the aftermath would be, if I were to kill myself. It’s the weird, anxious sickness that comes from feeling like I feel sometimes and also knowing what the consequences would be. I’ve got three kids, and I’m able to envision how it would affect them and how it could send their lives spiraling out of control. My wife is very much my grounding. She grounds me and has done a very good job at keeping me here and being supportive through everything. She’s my hope. (Joel Birch on Apple Music)
Forever Lyrics
I’m not afraid to die / Not afraid of where I’ll go / I’m afraid of how it ends / And what it’ll do to you
There’s a knot inside my gut / ‘Cause I’m not trying to give up / But the rain, yeah the rain it lasts forever / Forever in my heart
We can’t live forever / But our love will never die / Will you hold me in your heart / Be the light when it gets dark / We can’t live forever
So if it ends the way I fear / See you on the other side my dear / I am not afraid to die / But I’m afraid to leave you here / In the dark
We can’t live forever / But our love will never die / Will you hold me in your heart / Be the light when it gets dark / We can’t live forever
There’s a knot inside my gut / ‘Cause I’m not trying to give up / But the rain, yeah the rain it lasts forever / Forever in my heart /We can’t live forever But our love will never die / Will you hold me in your heart / Be the light when it gets dark / We can’t live forever
