GoStapled shut inside an outside world
And I'm sealed in tight
Bizarre but right at homeI'm claustrophobic closing in
And I'm catastrophic
Not againI'm smeared across the page and doused in gasoline
I wear you like a stain
Yet I'm the one who's obsceneCatch me up on all your sordid little insurrections
I've got no time to lose
I'm just caught up in all the cattleFray the strings
Through the sheathes
Hold your breath
ListenI am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget thatI am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget thatI'm ripped across the ditch and settled in the dirt
And I wear you like a stitch
Yet I'm the one who's hurtPay attention to your twisted little indiscretions
I've got no right to win
I'm just caught up in all the battlesLocked in clutch
Pushed in place
Hold your breath
ListenI am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget thatI am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget thatMy end, it justifies my means
All I ever do is delay
My every attempt to evade
The end of the road is my endIt justifies my means
All I ever do is delay
I haven't time to evade
The end of the roadI am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget thatI am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget thatI am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget thatYeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh
