Lyrics

[Intro]

Go!

[Verse 1]

Stapled shut– inside an outside world

And I'm sealed in tight– bizarre, but right at home

I'm claustrophobic– closing in

And I'm catastrophic– not again

[Verse 2]

I'm smeared across the page and doused in gasoline

I wear you like a stain, yet I'm the one who's obscene

Catch me up on all your sordid little insurrections

I've got no time to lose– I'm just caught up in all the cattle

[PreChorus]

Fray the strings… throw the shapes

Hold your breath… listen

[Chorus]

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

[Chorus]

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

[Verse 3]

I'm ripped across the ditch and settled in the dirt

And I wear you like a stitch, yet I'm the one who's hurt

Pay attention to your twisted little indiscretions

I've got no right to win– I'm just caught up in all the battles

[PreChorus]

Locked in clutch… pushed in place

Hold your breath… listen

[Chorus]

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

[Chorus]

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

[Bridge]

My end, it justifies my means

All I ever do is delay

My every attempt to evade

The end of the road and my end

[Bridge]

It justifies my means

All I ever do is delay

My every attempt to evade

The end of the road

[Chorus]

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

[Chorus]

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

[Chorus]

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that
