Before I Lyrics

Living like a movie starts to lose its shimmer at some point

Always said that I think she was the lightpost

Missing just a few bulbs in her joint

It was over-under-backwards, fabrics tear just to be replaced

And they are, I taught myself to sew just enough to cover all this space

I said I think she was the lightpost but I'm not heading back there to find out

And I'm losing all my patience, no wish to feel my way out through this crowd

I was losing you

Before I

Went home

Often

Outside

I'm feelin' it out, the bright light out is blindin'

I'm feelin' it out, hey sister, what'd you teach us?

I'm flailin' about, the bright light out is blindin'

I'm feeling this out just to let go

I was losing you

Before I

Went home

Often

Outside

Living like a movie

Living like a movie

Living like a movie

Living like a movie

Living like a movie starts to lose its shimmer, it's our fate

Easier to watch it than say what's in your head, articulate

Fantasy protects you from what would be the naked, dumb truth

Split up by desire, I'm thankful that my nightmares don't come true

I'm feelin' it out, the bright light out is blindin'

I'm feelin' it out, hey sister, what'd you teach us?

I'm flailin' about, the bright light out is blindin'

I'm feeling this out just to let go

I was losing me

Before I

Lost you

Release

Speak it

Before I

Went home

Often
