"Brace Yourself" Lyrics

Before I was a war I was a sword.
Before I was a tree I was a seed.
Before I was a cliff I was a canyon.
Before I was a feast I was a famine.
Before I was a day I was a dawn.
Before I was a prince I was a swan.

Before I was a corpse I was a kid.
Before I was a cloud I was a grid.
Before I was a crush I was a kiss.
Before I was a got I was a wish.

Brace Yourself!

Before I was a word I was a sound.
Before I was a sky I was a ground.
Before I was a stone I was a hill.
Before I was a wheel I was a will.
Before I was a birth I was a kill.
Before I was a wash I was a filth.
