Before the Fire Lyrics

Backed into a corner, you choke

Faint I hear that subtle suffering croak

Your cries are dim and drowned out in the light

You need me now

Need me to let you hide

You tell me it isn't worth the fight

You're breathing and I want you to be right

Backed into a corner, I cried

Gray eyes tracing over faded lines

Don't tell me your secrets if you'll lie

Don't tell me a joke before the fire

You're sweetness

You're freedom I've never seen

Don't you realize I need you to be me
