​before Lyrics by ​slenderbodies

the sugar machine (deluxe)

2024

[Verse 1]
I don't believe the great in somebody is their self
But does it join you when you're born or only here and there?
I love that everything we share is about making the most
Just tell me how you let it go

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't mind more, it keeps me floating higher
This is how it goes as I edge close to admire

[Chorus]
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose sensation
All thе situations I've thrown myself and faked in
But bеfore I do it, I lose it

[Verse 2]
From August to autumn, post-summer downtime
I'm pounding the pavement, then wiping my hands dry
Do I really help myself by making friends with the ghosts
I just wanna ask where they go

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't mind more, it keeps me floating higher
This is how it goes as I edge close to admire

[Chorus]
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose sensation
All the situations I've thrown myself and faked in
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose sensation
All the situations I've thrown myself and faked in
But before I do it, I lose it

[Chorus]
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose sensation
All the situations I've thrown myself and faked in
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose it
But before I do it, I lose sensation
All the situations I've thrown myself and faked in
But before I do it, I lose it
