lyrics

Before I Go

I've packed my clothes and the last of my money
In a suitcase with no handle and no plan
I've braced myself for a long road ahead
I don't know if it's a start or an end
I haven't had to watch the news for a long time
I just look out of my front door
The civil has been stolen from the word civilisation
So I'm running ‘til it can be restored

Before I go... before I go...
I'll take a second to remember my old home
Before I go... before I go...
Try to remember how it was before
Try to remember how it was before

I found a picture of my family in the ruins
A dog-eared scrap of paper from the past
But I'm careful not to tear it as I place it in my pocket
It's the only thing of any worth I have

Before I go... before I go...
I'll take a second to remember my old home
Before I go... before I go...
Try to remember how it was before
Try to remember how it was before

I'm leaving more than memories behind me
I'm leaving more than the property I owned
I'm burying my heart in the rubble and the dirt
It's just too heavy to carry on my own
I've packed my clothes and the last of my money
In a suitcase with no handle and no plan
I've braced myself for the long road ahead
I don't know if it's the start or the end

Before I go... before I go...
I'll take a second to remember my old home
Before I go... before I go...
Try to remember how it was before
Try to remember how it was before
Try to remember how it was before
