Before Lyrics

It has been much too long

Since I put on my skin

They must have hid it away when they found out where I'd been

I don't think you belong

You'd best get out of here

I see you hidden away through the window, drenched with fear

Getting hard to see

Don't forget to breathe

Now you've lost the feed

Time to watch you bleed

Why are you trying to find

The secrets left behind

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

The present past is gone

Your future won't be long

Don't risk your life in search of all the things that came before

In 1987

They didn't go to heaven

Soon as the cameras die

I won't be far behind

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

Seems you won't heed my warning

You just keep coming back

Despite hallucinations giving you these heart attacks

But now my time is coming

I'll be the last to laugh

The spirits can't protect you when you're being torn in half

Getting hard to see

Don't forget to breathe

Now you've lost the feed

Time to watch you bleed

Why are you trying to find

The secrets left behind

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

The present past is gone

Your future won't be long

Don't risk your life in search of all the things that came before

Investigations be damned

You'll never know who I am

You may have saved their souls

But you just played your role

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

Why are you trying to find

The secrets left behind

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

The present past is gone

Your future won't be long

Don't risk your life in search of all the things that came before

You'd best stop wasting your time

Reading between the scan lines

So long as number four

Does not build on the lore

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before

You'll never know exactly what it is that came before
