[ Featuring Les Savy Fav ]
Before I was a war I was a sword
Before I was a tree I was a seed
Before I was a cliff I was a canyon
Before I was a feast I was a famine
Before I was a day I was a dawn
Before I was a prince I was a swan
Before I was a corpse I was a kid
Before I was a cloud I was a grid
Before I was a crush I was a kiss
Before I was a got I was a wish
Brace yourself!
Before I was a word I was a sound
Before I was a sky I was a ground
Before I was a stone I was a hill
Before I was a wheel I was a will
Before I was a birth I was a kill
Before I was a wash I was a filth
Brace yourself!
