The Last One Home

The Last One Home

Some fairytales don't last forever.

You love, you lose, you hurt, and die.

You and me hit nasty weather.

Played Hide and Seek, then nevermind.

Well tell me baby,

Tell me princess,

Tell me lover,

One more race.

Cause the last one home is, a rotten egg,

While the first one sleeps alone.

No winners here, just, two left to beg,

That the sinless find no stones.

All you left was this here letter.

Hurts too much these days to cry.

None of your words can make it better.

When your feet betray the lie.

I wanna love, I wanna smile,

I wanna fight, then reconcile,

let it breathe, so love can live again.

So stay with me, and call me names,

let it out, dole out the blame,

Cleanse your soul so it can race again.
