After the Disco Lyrics

After your faith has let you down
I know you'll want to run around
And follow the crowd into the night
But after the disco
All of the shine just faded away
Oh oh oh oh
Do what you want
Do what you will
Don't tell me it's not our time

'Cause I'm
Waiting here much too long and
Don't assume
That I need your love
The chill of night has got you dancing away
And I'm
Not the dreamer or the dream you're
Out there looking for

How did I get in this winding maze of love?
And there's something wrong and it's sending you
Round and round 'til we go nowhere

I see the ashes on the ground
I know the world is burning down
And under the cold and empty moon
But after the disco
All of the shine just faded away
Oh oh oh oh
Do what you want
Do what you will
But you can't hide
Oh oh oh oh
Do what you want
Do what you will
Don't tell me it's not our time

'Cause I'm
Waiting here much too long and
Don't assume
That I need your love
The chill of night has got you dancing away
And I'm
Not the dreamer or the dream you're
Out there looking for

How did I get in this winding maze of love?
And there's something wrong and it's sending you
Round and round 'til we go nowhere

What is the Meaning of After the Disco?

Exploring the complexities of love and disillusionment, this poignant track delves into the aftermath of a relationship that has lost its initial luster. The lyrics depict a protagonist wrestling with feelings of disappointment as they navigate through the winding maze of love. The disco symbolizes the high-energy, attractive phase of romance which eventually fades away, leaving behind an emptiness and a yearning for what once was. The song also highlights the struggle between desire and reality - while one can do as they please, escaping the truth is impossible. It's a raw examination of unreciprocated feelings and time wasted on a love that was never meant to be.
