lyrics

Read the Last Page First

I can tell that you’ve lost your way
It’s been twelve months ago to the day
I would yell him right out of this grave
If I could

If you’d let me into your house
I’d be as still and as quiet as a mouse
Baby, I will help you smother the doubt
Well - If I could

But the sun keeps on rising like we’ve got a future
Your lips on mine mend the wound like a suture
And all of the fallen will finally rise up again

Read the last page first and often
With every ice cold blast that turns you to stone
I know that you’re itching to fight
But baby just give me the right
To read you the last page first tonight

Pumpkin and tangerine bread
Kisses that go to your head
I would use these to destroy the dread
If I could

It’s been twelve months today and you need a reminder
That Death gets his ass kicked - when you look behind ya
All of your fallen are finally standing again
