Celldweller - The Last Firstborn Lyrics






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...'

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 am I gonna be afraid

Where are you? What do you think?
'Cos I'm not sure when
Knocking at death's door
If i will be welcome in
Or be left alone outside

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

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 can't change what's meant to be
The message you sent out to me
I can't change what's meant to be

(What am I supposed to do now?)

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)

  9. V.... J....

    The crazy thing is after hearing every Celldweller song, every instrumental, every demo song, every live performance available, every remix, and even seeing him perform live, this album still holds up easily as his best work. None of his other works comes close (well, maybe svh1). Even listening to this album, that was slated for release in 2001, still easily outpaces every electronic rock song / album to date. Like, if you're still listening to his music (as celldweller) after 18 years!

  10. S.... B....

    Recomendations:
    Devils Never Cry

    HMMM

  31. J.... S....

    As a Firstborn, I've found that I always get along better with other firstborn people.

  32. L.... M....

    This song takes some of my favorite synth and rock sounds and just paints a goddamned sexy picture of music!

    L.... M....

    * Metal, not rock

  33. s.... 1....

    I'd like to know who the 300 haters are. Bless Klayton.

  34. F.... B....

    This song reminds me of trying to complete Whisper Of The Worm quest in Destiny 2, but still haven’t :/

    F.... B....

    What platform are u on if u Still need it ?

    F.... B....

    We carried like 30 people with my friend , some of them couldnt even get to the Boss because he didnt know the way and we Still did it.

  35. L.... ....

    This song is in Crackdown game (a badass game) for xbox 360

  36. G.... E....

    Ridiculously good song

  37. N.... o....

    Any other songs like this one? I've been trying hard to look for some, but can't seem to find 'em.

    N.... o....

  43. H.... 4....

    Extremely underrated

  44. P.... G....

    This just sits right!

  45. N.... ....

    This isn't bad but it's never really stood out to me and the TwilightChrono Remix is too godly for it to compare.

  46. M.... ....

  55. P.... M....

    Still number 1 CELLDWELLER RULES

    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?

    Cause I'm not sure when knocking at Death's door
    If I will be welcomed in or be left alone outside

    [Verse 4]
    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

    [Bridge 2]
