Benjamin Clementine Lyrics
"Condolence"

I swear, that you've seen me,
Yes, you've seen me here before, before.
And so, don't tell it,
Don't tell it otherwise.

This voice; this particular voice, yes.
You've heard it before, before,
And so don't you dare tell it;
Don't you dare tell it otherwise.

No wonder, why the road seems so long,
Cause I have done it all before,
And I won.

You felt this feeling, tell me, don't be ashamed
You felt it before, before
And so don't tell me
Don't tell me otherwise.

I almost forgot, foolish me;
I almost forgot, forgot
That where I'm from,
We see the rain before the rain even starts to rain.

Before I was born there was a storm,
Before that storm there was fire,
Burning everywhere, everywhere,
And everything became nothing again

And then out of nothing,
Out of absolutely nothing I, Benjamin, I was born
So that when I become someone one day
I'll always remember that I came from nothing

No wonder, why you've been buggering me,
Cause this walk, it's a previous journey,
And no wonder why the road seem so long,
Cause I had done it all before,
And I won.

I'm sending my condolence,
I'm sending my condolence to fear.
I'm sending my condolence,
I'm sending my condolence to insecurities.

You should know by now,
You should know by now,
That I just don't care.
For what you might say
Might bring someone downhill.

I'm sending my condolence,
I'm sending my condolence to fear.
