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 ****** at all Or if I'm 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 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 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)
