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...
Listen…
Listen…
Listen...

Now I wait to take my turn to bleed
Like a kid playing with a razorblade
And wonder if I have the balls at all
Or am I gonna be afraid
Where are you?
What do you think?
'Cause 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 fucked with your head
Just like it's fucked 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
(Hit its mark... hit its mark...)

I see the darkness surround
The shape on the ground
The killer straight up
And a body face down
(Body face down... 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
