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 if I'm gonna be afraid
Where are you? What do you think?
'Cause I'm not sure when knocking at d**h's door
If I will be welcomed 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 k**er 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 k**er 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 f**ed with your head just like it's f**ed up mine
Listen
My son
Firstborn
Last one
The message you sent out to me
I cannot change what's meant to be
The message you sent out to me
I cannot 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 k**er 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 k**er 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)
