Last To Know
She just walked away.
Why didn't she tell me
And where do I go tonight
This isn't happening to me
This can't be happening to me
She didn't say a word
Just walked away
You were the first to say
That we were not ok
You were the firt to lie
When we were not alright
This was my first love
She was teh first to go
And when she left me for you
I was the last to know
Why didn't she tell me
Where to go tonight
She didn't say a word
She just walked away
You were the first to say
That we were not ok
You were the first to lie
When we were not alright
This was my first love
She was the firs to go
And when she left me for you
I was the last to know
I'll be the first to say
That now I'm ok
And for the first time
I've opened up my eyes
This was my worst love
You'll be the first to go
And when she leaves you for dead
You'll be the last to know
I'll be the first to say
That now I'm ok
And for the first time
I've opened up my eyes
This was my worst love
You'll be the first to go
And when she leaves you for dead
You'll be the last to know
Howard's Tale
Age 5, just a little boy shy
Is he ready for the big surprise
He'll be playing lego in a dream
When the shadows come to life
Age 9 and he should've been fine
With a secret he's sure to keep
Two times had to tell a little lie
For the sake of him and me
Now it's over
I need closure
Hey, look what you did to me
When you were taking me home
Getting me stoned
Leave me alone
I waited for mom to comfort me
But when I opened my mouth
Don't say nothing, shhh
Age 12 and it isn't going well
Now it's 3 years to the day
Confused, but unlike you
This feeling won't go away
16 and the woman down the street
Has invited him to come inside
The first time, it didn't feel right
It'll be the last time he tries
Hey, look what you did to me
When you were taking me home
Getting me stoned
Leave me alone
I waited for mom to comfort me
But when I opened my mouth
Don't say nothings wrong
I won't say nothings wrong
I won't say, I won't say
I won't say, I won't say
I won't say, I won't say
17, all he's ever seen
Is the living in between the lies
It's kind of funny how a mind
Can keep living in denial
18 is a very strange scene
He's still playing with the past
Expelled, maybe someone could've helped
If someone had known to ask
Hey, look what you did to me
When you were taking me home
Getting me stoned
Leave me alone
I waited for mom to comfort me
But when I opened my mouth
Don't say nothing, shhh
19 and he's innocently
Parked right beside a school
He stares at a boy sitting there
And the boy stares at him too
He walks over
He needs closure
Hurt
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of stuff
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
Suite Pee
I had an out of body experience
The other day
Her name was Jesus
And for her everyone cried
Everyone cried, everyone cried
Try her philosophy, try her philosophy
Try her philosophy, try
You die for her philosophy
Die for her philosophy
Die her philosophy die
Crossed and terrored ravages of architecture
Lend me thy blades
We're crossed and terrored ravages of architecture
Hoist around the spade
Try her philosophy, try her philosophy
Try her philosophy, try
You die for her philosophy
Die for her philosophy
Die her philosophy, die
Die, die, die, why
Lie naked on the floor
And let the Messiah go through our souls
Lie naked on the floor
And let the Messiah go all through our souls
Die, like a motherforgeter
Die, like a motherforgeter
Die, like a motherforgeter
Why, like a motherforgeter
I want to forget my way to the garden
'Cause everyone needs a mother forgeter
The following of a Christ, the following of a Christ
The following of a Christ, the following of a Christ
The falling of Christ, the falling of Christ
The falling of Christ, the falling of Christ
I had an out of body experience
The other day
Her name was Jesus
