Deluxe songs of after hours
Does anyone else think these songs have meaning to the album? I don’t think they’re just throwaways. I think they kinda take place after until I bleed out which is where he dies and we know dawn fm is purgatory. I think it’s the transitory stage for Abel from death to purgatory where he’s being pulled to. I think the until I bleed out mv kinda shows this. He’s aware that he’s not alive but he knows it’s a broken place and that he’s running out of time until he gets taken to purgatory. He’s just reflecting on the girl and his life and his bad habits. In sacrifice mv we know there are spirits pulling at his soul. Even the production elements of these songs sound like it’s a transition phase to dawn fm after death. After hours might replace kiss land as my number 1 now. Genius beyond words. Bless you Abel.
I like to think that Until I Bleed Out was the bad ending where he kills himself. The deluxe and especially Final Lullaby was him going back to what happened and making things right by “putting to sleep” the idea of him and her together so he can finally move on, die in peace, and reach purgatory in dawn FM
final lullaby feels like the true ending to the album, with him finally going to sleep and waking up at dawn
Missed you and final lullaby feel like the point he reaches true acceptance
Yep
