lyrics

Last Words:

For every word that I tried to say
For every emotion I tried to convey
Did I get far? Or did I just fail?
I’ve grown so tired of walking this road
This path stretched farther then I could have known
Maybe I can burn and just fade away.

Because I tried my best and still I feel I failed this test.
This test of will. This test of faith. Where is my faith?
I gave it my best shot and I feel it just wasn’t enough
So I’ll fade away. No one will know. No one will know.
Just let me get in these last words.

If these are the last words you hear me say
Just think of me kindly and where we’ve been
I can’t believe. I can’t believe.
It’s just not fair when you hear what’s out there
The hearts and souls of those just don’t compare
To all my friends. (Who) Follow thru to the end.

Because I tried my best and still I feel I failed this test.
This test of will. This test of faith. Where is my faith?
I gave it my best shot and I feel it just wasn’t enough
So I’ll fade away, no one will know. No one will know.
Just let me get in these last words.

Is this the end? Could this be the end?

(If so) Just let me get in these last words…

Just these last words…
