Letra de Before You Were Born

If damnation is eternal Then you are in it now The meal of the day Watching reflections in the window of the train Dwindling away The face of an angel plunging toward earth A pack of gum and a gun in her purse You're becoming some monster, impostor, or just like your father She only drinks vodka, reading her Kafka, repeating the mantra If damnation is eternal Then you are in it now Breathing in and out If damnation is eternal Then you are in it now Going nowhere, spinning 'round Fix my shirt, straighten my tie Pretend that I'm not breaking inside Fix my shirt, straighten my tie We will not be taken alive If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until it all just fades away If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until we all just fade away If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until it all just fades away If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until we all just fade away If damnation is eternal Then you are in it now Breathing in and out Going nowhere, spinning 'round It's torturous, of course it is Time has run its course on us Before you were born, I was dying It's torturous, of course it is Time has run its course on us Before you were born, I was dying If damnation is eternal Then you are in it now Breathing in and out If damnation is eternal Then you are in it now Going nowhere, spinning 'round Fix my shirt, straighten my tie Pretend that I'm not breaking inside Fix my shirt, straighten my tie We will not be taken alive If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until it all just fades away If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until we all just fade away If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until it all just fades away If they didn't name the days It would all just stay the same Day to day until we all just fade away Before you were born, I was dying (Before you were born, I was dying) Before you were born, I was dying (Before you were born, I was dying) Before you were born, I was dying (Before you were born, I was dying) Before you were born, I was dying (Before you were born, I was dying) Before you were born, I was dying
