Before That Songtext
von Emma Harner

How come I didn′t know you at all
When you asked
Or before that?

Bury me in it
The quiet through the crack
In the door
You're sure

Isn′t there absolutely one right answer?
Didn't you cut your tongue on the water?
Weren't we just laughing at something?
You slip through her fingers into nothing

Twenty thousand
Thirty thousand

And it was pretty
The oldest, widest house
On the main
Road


And though I felt it
The door as cold as rain
I never saw
The ghost
And I know

That you won′t be the same again
The winding road and home by ten
Just laugh it off and never move
Another number on the news

Twenty thousand
Thirty thousand

I believe in nothing now
So I don′t contradict myself
I have been the fool too many times
In front of you

She believes in everything
I lose sleep
I haven't heard from her in two weeks
But she′s not the kind of girl
That has to choose
That has to choose

I have been the fool too many times
In front of you

You have to choose
