The Last Firstborn - Celldweller

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 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 Death’s

door

If I will be welcomed in or be left alone outside

(Oh, oh, boy, I love you)

(Lying here still)

(Oh, oh, boy, I love you)

(Lying here still)

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»

(Listen)

(My son)

(Firstborn, last one)

(Oh, oh, boy, I love you)

(Lying here still)

(Oh, oh, boy, I love you)

(Lying here still)

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?)

(Oh, oh, boy, I love you)

(Lying here still)

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)
