The water in your glass is older than the sun
The photons on your screen were present on day one
The lightning in the sky, synapses in your brain
The tears that fill your eye, the water in the rain
All that we are and all that we adore
Is re-arranged from things that came before
The oxygen we breathe was once a dying star
We think we'll never leave but soon we will go far
All that we are and all that we adore
Is re-arranged from things that came before
All that we are and all that we explore
Is re-arranged from things that came before
Before, before, before
The rivers we must cross, the oceans there divine
Were interstellar clouds upon the cosmic tide
The water in your glass is older than the sun
The photons on your screen were present on day one
All that we are and all that we adore
Is re-arranged from things that came before
All that we are and all that we explore
Is re-arranged from things that came before
From things that came before, before, before
