lyrics

In the Before

I was gonna be the one to show you
The world is like a cloud impermanent
Point out all the antecedents
Precursors determinants

Tried to explain the difference
Between particles and atoms
The way your eyes shape air and light
Color it through a prism

I wanted to show you all these things
But you beat me to it
You said I was a condescending fool
And then I proved it

I wanted to take you out for a ride
On the back of my father’s Norton
To places you had never seen
To stave away the boredom

You said you wouldn’t be my monkey
Not today or any other
There were worlds inside of you
Left to be discovered

I wanted to show you all these things
But you beat me to it
You said I was a condescending fool
And then I proved it

With each cigarette that stained your crooked teeth
I grew reticent as you slipped from my reach
You said sometimes I blotted out the light
All my everything somehow grew contrite
C#m B
But you pulled me close and made me feel connected
Said you liked way sorrow adds perspective
Asus B C#m E C#m B
You took my hand led me out the door
I left behind how were before
