The Last Firstborn

Oh man, I can't believe that you did what they said you did

And to this day I've still gotta say

That in my mind I question it

I wish I knew what you had meant

Before you went and left me wondering to

Just an echo of your voice

'Listen...'

Now I wait to take my turn to bleed

Like a kid playing with a razor blade

And wonder if I have the balls at all

Or am I gonna be afraid

Where are you? What do you think?

'Cos I'm not sure when

Knocking at death's door

If i will be welcome in

Or be left alone outside

I hear the sound of a heart

From the shadow in the dark

Waiting for the poison to hit its mark

(Listen, my son)

I see the darkness

Surround the shape on the ground

The killer straight up and a body face down

(Firstborn, last one)

I hear the din of the screams

Sorrow in streams

The smell of farewell and gasoline

(Listen, my son)

I see a heart set free

And my legacy

Hear a voice from a shadow

That is beckoning me

(Firstborn, last one)

I guess there comes a point when you think to yourself

"This isn't worth it, it isn't worth it"

And now I feel what you felt

And now I feel what you felt inside, brother

And now I feel what you felt

This isn't worth it, it isn't worth it

I hear the sound of a heart

From the shadow in the dark

Waiting for the poison to hit its mark

(Listen, my son)

I see the darkness

Surround the shape on the ground

The killer straight up and a body face down

(Firstborn, last one)

I hear the din of the screams

Sorrow in streams

The smell of farewell and gasoline

(Listen, my son)

I see a heart set free

And my legacy

Hear a voice from a shadow

That is beckoning me

(Firstborn, last one)

Listen

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't end this way

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't end this way

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't end this way

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't end this way

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't end this way

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't

I wish it didn't end this way

Live a life in hell through a mortal shell

Asphyxiating smell for a crime

Lifetime imagination locked in a cell

And to the other firstborn

I see the same scene that

Must play over in your mind

And now how much more

I'm sure it's ****** with your head

Just like it's ****** up mine

Listen

My son

Firstborn

Last one

The message you sent out to me

I can't change what's meant to be

The message you sent out to me

I can't change what's meant to be

(What am I supposed to do now?)

I hear the sound of a heart

From the shadow in the dark

Waiting for the poison to hit its mark

I see the darkness

Surround the shape on the ground

The killer straight up and a body face down

I hear the din of the screams

Sorrow in streams

The smell of farewell and gasoline

(Listen)

I see a heart set free

And my legacy

Hear a voice from a shadow

That is beckoning me

(My son)

I hear the sound of a heart

From the shadow in the dark

Waiting for the poison to hit its mark

(Listen, my son)

I see the darkness

Surround the shape on the ground

The killer straight up and a body face down

(Firstborn, last one)

I hear the din of the screams

Sorrow in streams

The smell of farewell and gasoline

(Listen, my son)

I see a heart set free

And my legacy

Hear a voice from a shadow

That is beckoning me

(Firstborn, last one)

(Firstborn)

You are the last one

(Firstborn)
