The first, you remember
The last is forever
The blue lights turn barren cold
When you suddenly go from young to old
From when you'd protect
To when you're a machine full of defects
Between those days of youth
Are those hours of truth
When you think of all those times you'd forgotten
What it was like to have a person in caution
When the first becomes the worst
And the last becomes the past
And there is nowhere you can go
Where you know you won't feel alone
Where your house is just home
But you don't truly belong
In the time frame that tipped wrong
In the world where everything is something you've prolonged
In this city, silent and consuming
Regrets, guilt and what you'd been used to assuming
The first, you remember
The last is forever
But when the first becomes the worst
And when the last becomes the past
You wish those times were reversed
Because you wish you didn't have that end
In which you had friends way back when
