amity - before i go lyrics

verse 1:
i had a dream last night that one of you died/
i woke up, rubbed at my eyes and started to cry/
i couldn’t bear the thought of you departing my side/
the last thing i’d ever do is leave a brother behind/
and i thought about what it might be like to learn you’re no longer with us/
then realised what if i’m the first to go?/
and the fear of that made me write a verse, i know/
i shouldn’t have been morbid when i tried to word it though/
but i couldn’t fathom the thought of losing any one of you/
so there’s something that i’ve got to prove to every one of you/
everything we’ve done i know you’ll do again with someone new/
you say i’m the best but know that you are never number two/
it’s like getting the high score of the game/
but there’s more to life than fast rides, fortune and fame/
it’s no surprise that my pride’s causing me pain/
because the things that we live and die for are the same

hook:
before i go i want you all to know/
i’m so grateful and i’m so thankful/
because of you i’ll never walk alone/
or fall below, i’m so lucky to call this home, yeah/
before i go i want you all to know/
i’m so grateful and i’m so thankful/
through every great story and awkward joke/
i’m sure to choke, i’m so lucky to call this home, yeah

verse 2:
at my first gig you bought all the tickets/
and i want you to know that meant more than you think to me/
i remember all the talks that you’ve given me/
even if it seems like i’m not ever listening/
you thought that my hindsight was blind/
you brighten my life, you’re the highlight of mine/
and i’ll forever be right by your side/
and i know you’ll do the same through like+minded times/
so thank you, mum and dad, for your endless support/
for all of the fun we’ve had and the lessons you’ve taught/
for never going mad at my end+of+semester report/
now your boy’s an undergrad with a step in the door/
without you, i wouldn’t be the person i am today/
and this song won’t cover half of the words that i plan to say/
it’s fair to say i’m not the most worthy of candidates/
but you nurtured me and weren’t turning your hands away, so thanks

verse 3:
we smile together, we cry together/
and we fight side by side through the wildest weather/
enjoy the ride and have the time of our lives together/
and i wipe my eyes as i write this letter/
you can bet i’m sorry if i ever took you for granted/
but the way things turned out, i couldn’t have planned it/
like the week after school we went camping/
and the transition from childhood into manhood/
i hope you know you’re gonna go so far in life/
you’re so smart and you don’t know half of it/
i’m so d+mn proud of you all/
if you’re lonely, you know i’m always down for a call/
for sure, there have been times when i’ve been caved in and crawling/
but true friends only get in your way if you’re falling/
before i go, i want you all to know/
i’m so lucky to call this home, much love

bridge:
you’re the reason that i believe in myself/
and you keep me alive and breathing/
you’re amazing and i will say this/
for as long as it takes me to try repay you
