Nathanael Hoyt - B4 THE GATE lyrics

I know you saw me there
You were there on the other side
Waiting to pass the crater
The impact years later
I'm still intact

I'm a pesky little critter in your view
I'm a little faded fly
Me and my big bug eyes
You will never see me complete
So I suggest you
Just stick to counting sheep
You will never really know me
Unless you walked in my shoes
You will never get to know me
Cause I rеally won't let you

Before I stand from across thе gate
I want you to change all of your disgrace
Please don't make me want to hate you
Cause I will fucking break you
Before I stand from across the gate
I want to you clean your plate
I want you to clean your slate
Don't talk about mine when yours
Is still a mess
Its really all the same cause
I know you haven't changed

(Oh you haven't changed)

Don't mess around with me
I'm in a rush there ain't no
Time for the gossip and tea
I'm in a rush so don't fucking bother me
I've been around for years
I've cried a lot and bottled up my tears
I waited here at dusk
For my lost cuckoo clock
I know that that time stopped
My dear cuckoo is still lost
I've been sadly waiting for the
Years to go by i know it sadly ended in
I'm still lonely and goodbyes

I'm a pesky little critter in your view
I'm a little faded fly
Me and my big bug eyes
You will never see me complete
So I suggest you
Just stick to counting sheep
You will never really know me
Unless you walked in my shoes
You will never get to know me
Cause I really won't let you

Before I stand from across the gate
I want you to change all of your disgrace
Please don't make me want to hate you
Cause I will fucking break you
Before I stand from across the gate
I want to you clean your plate
I want you to clean your slate
Don't talk about mine when yours
Is still a mess
Its really all the same cause
I know you haven't changed
