The remnant - Before Us [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse One: Adan & Tribe One]
This is all brand new with an old feel
I can't stand the cold chill therefore I suggest we hold still
You haven't let go of your ex yet and my best bet
Is for our next step to be an exit
Checking my text messages, you're less invested in
What's happening with us and you're stuck thinking of him
I'm the one that can't pretend that this is gonna last
When our future has a path heading straight back to its past

She let me know that she was not to be messed with
Definitely eager, possibly desperate
And I could never leave cause she was blocking the exits
Man, she could get possessive like apostrophe S
After her ex left, I set a better example
A genuine gentleman is never in a scandal
I sensed her distress and then rescued the damsel
But she kept a torch for him and I never held a candle

[Hook: Kameron Corvet]
Every time that you look back
We fall into another trap before us
(It's about you and me, yeah)
Girl, I just can't play the part
If someone else done broke your heart before us
Girl it was all before us

[Verse 2: Adan]
'If anyone present know why these two people should not wed
Speak now or forever hold your peace'
And as he sat in that pew, pressing feet to the floor
Struggling to ignore the voice that told him to speak
Fidgeting with his hands, he nervously taps his leg
He finally gets the courage to clear his throat and say
Nothing
He chokes on his silence
Zipping his lip is seen as consent or compliance
'Do you have the rings?'
He can't believe that this is happening
The love of his life is about to be a past tense thing
Before the fat girl sings, he stands up and interrupts the happy couple holding hands
Begs for a second chance
Tells her he loves her, wants her, who could predict
The bride loosens her grip, who should she pick?
The groom's through with this, looks at the former bride to be
And finally utters these last words before he decides to leave

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Tribe One]
She looked like a princess in her red dress
And I was left gasping for breath but nevertheless
I had a lot of thoughts on my chest to express
When I asked her to take the next step, she said yes
In hindsight, I should've known it then
From how all her old men were now her closest friends
Bended, broken, fences, no closure, open ended
But she told me she was over them
The future took precedence when the reverend stated
'If there are any objections, speak now or never say it'
I should've expected one of her exes to profess
And I guess something resonated, because she hesitated
'Devastated' doesn't even begin
To ever think that she would leave me for him
Well believe me sweetie, you'll never see me again
I'm a leaf on the wind-- watch me soar

[Hook]

[Outro: Kameron Corvet]
We just can't keep looking back
Every time we do, we get off track
We just can't keep looking back
Every time we do, we get off track
Tell me how can I, how can I
Hold you close when it's gonna be like that?
Like that...
