    BEFORE
    I LOVED YOU BEFORE YOU WERE BORN
    THOUGH YOU NEW NOT THEN
    FORE YOU WAS LOST IN THE ABYSS
    AND TIME HAD NOT YET BEEN.

    I HEARD YOUR CRY WHEN YOU WERE BORN
    TO A LIFE OF THE FORELORN.
    AND I SAW THE PRISON IN YOUR HEART
    WHERE YOU KEEP THE ONES WHOM YOU SCORN

    I WILL FREE YOU FROM THE CAGE
    AND LET YOUR FREELY TALK AND BOAST
    THAT YOU HAVE BEATEN THE CURSE OF LIFE
    AND NEED NO ONE TO BE YOUR HOST.

    YOU'LL RANT AND SAY THIS IS MY WORLD
    I AM THE CONCUERER OF ALL I SEE
    THE GREATEST TO EVER LIVE
    THE GREATEST TO EVER BE.

    AND THOUGH I WILL NOT AGREE
    WITH THE THINGS YOU CARRY OUT
    I WILL LET YOU GO ABOUT YOUR LIFE
    UNTIL THE DAY YOU WILL HAVE A DOUBT.

    SOON IT WILL BEGIN TO FALL APART
    BECAUSE YOU'VE LOST THE ART OF LIFE
    THEN THE CALL WILL GO OUT FAR AND WIDE
    OH PLEASE SAVE ME FROM ALL THIS STRIFE.

    THEN YOU WILL KNOW I WAS ALWAYS THERE
    READY TO HELP WITH EVERY TEAR
    I WILL CURE ALL YOUR PAIN
    AND TAKE AWAY ALL YOUR FEAR.

    THEN I'LL SET YOU FREE TO TRY ONCE MORE
    THOUGH I AM TORN
    REMEMBER I LOVED YOU
    BEFORE YOU WERE BORN.
