"Life After You", which became the soundtrack for "The Broken Hearts Story", Book 2 from the "Stronger Together" series. This is a song about a man, who does not hide his happiness about the breakup with the girl, who, saying softly, never cared about him at all. About him being tired of this kind of attitude and decided to tear out this page out of the book about his life. It's about how the breakup helped him breathe freely and feel desired and alive again. The man is done with playing for the cameras with the girl and pretending for everyone that he formed a perfect at-first-sight couple with her. Yes, he keeps feeling affection for her, but he understands he cannot build a deep relationship when he only has this kind of feeling, and he does not need to be obsessed with just one girl when there are many girls, who could give him what he was deprived of in his past relationship.
[Verse]
I was the toy you didn’t need
It’s good we didn’t get married
I’m tired of your narcissism
I’ve made an important decision
Yes, it’s time to take the page out
With no hesitation, with no doubts
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m finally awake, I can breathe
It’s fine she decided to leave
I’m not sorry, I ain’t gonna help
I dream of love, I deserve respect
I forgot I’d always been desired
But now I’m ready to fly like a bird
[Chorus]
Life after you (life after you)
I don’t need you, you don’t need me
I ain’t your man, you ain’t my destiny
True love is more than wild passion
And it should never be an addiction
I was intoxicated and thought I’d die
But it turns out I’m living a better life
Life after you
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
(Life after you)
[Verse 2]
We were just a stunning picture
A perfect couple from the cover (oh, oh, oh, oh)
I’m tired of this selfish actress
Playing for her family and cameras (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Yes, I’m strong and independent
But I wanna get care and be loved (oh, oh, oh, oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Gonna do my best to forget that lady
Even if her absence makes me thirsty
I’ve met the one who helps me survive
She’s always near to keep my spirit rise
Here’s the one who should be loved
The one who isn’t as dead as a diamond
[Chorus]
Life after you (life after you)
I don’t need you, you don’t need me
I ain’t your man, you ain’t my destiny
True love is more than wild passion
And it should never be an addiction
I was intoxicated and thought I’d die
But it turns out I’m living a better life
Life after you
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Bridge]
Life after you (life after you)
Life after you (life after you)
Life after you (life after you)
[Chorus]
Life after you (life after you)
I don’t need you, you don’t need me (we’re nothing)
I ain’t your man, you ain’t my destiny (we’re a fake)
True love is more than wild passion (much more)
And it should never be an addiction (no, no, no)
I was intoxicated and thought I’d die (intoxicated)
But it turns out I’m living a better life (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Life after you
[Outro]
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Life after you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Life after you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Life after you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Life after you
Oh-oh-oh-oh
