lyrics

Like the dawn before the day
Like the drop before the rain
The ocean before the wave
The master before the slave
Like the dock before the sea
Like the chains before the free
The pack before the leave
and the much before me

I don't know where to go
All I know is what I've been told
Hole in the road
Tall tales grow

Like the seed before the tree
Like the straw before the weave
The pain before relief
and Adam before Eve
Like the spark before the flame
Like the wild before the tame
The thing before the name
and the wrong before the blame

I don't know where to go
All I know is what I've been sold
Rules to follow
Morals borrowed
Heavy load grows and grows
All I ask is that I'll let go
Break my mold
Leave my old

I'll put myself before all else
Change myself, I change myself
I'll be fine, I'll be fine
Wherever I side I'll be alright
I'll be fine, I'll be fine
All I know is what I've been shown
