LYRICS GAME

When I'm young

I'll take the lions' share but

I won't mistake yeses for nos anymore and

Clinging to the hands of the clocks

I'll do everything to pull time back

When I'm young

I'll leave the subs' benches

I'll be captain of the soccer team and

I'll teach the big ones that you don't grow up

By stepping on someone smaller than you and

When I'm young I'll hold you in my arms

I'll try to laugh instead of laughing at you and

I'll train for hours in the cage

To smash hazing's face in

It'll be better before

It'll be better before

The end of the beginning

It'll be better before

It'll be better before

The end of the beginning

When I'm young I won't play for time

I'll be less scared to meet people

I'll quit reading the last pages

To spare myself the end of trips

When I'm young I'll take your share of shadow

To turn it into world music and

I'll slice up pieces of night

To make you origami dresses and

When I'm young I'll redo plenty of mistakes to

Blacken pages and toughen my heart and

I'll tell you to keep our baby

So I can keep you with me longer

It'll be better before

It'll be better before

The end of the beginning

It'll be better before

It'll be better before

The end of the beginning

When I'm young I'll take the tangent

Forever perpendicular to the slope

I'll drop the fights lost in advance

I'll give luck less room and

When I'm young I'll ruffle some feathers

I'll grab my star and my patch of asphalt

I'll stop you from taking the wheel

On a third of December with three grams in your blood

It'll be better before

It'll be better before

The end of the beginning

It'll be better before

It'll be better before

The end of the beginning
