You can throw away your expectations now,
And all the things you wouldn't say out loud,
There's nothing left to pick apart now, the cards are all down/
And now you know the sound of my heart, when it hits the paper,
There's no more mystery here.....this is the last song/
I remember when, we first became a band,
We'd drive all night and talk about the world,
I remember when, we used to, now and then,
Just sit and wonder where it all would go/
This is the last song,.....so everybody sing along,
This is the last song,...../(X2)
You can/ Throw away your expectations now,
And all the things you wouldn't say out loud,
There's nothing left to pick apart, now, the cards are all down/
And now you know the sound of my heart, when it hits the paper,
There's no more mystery here.....this is the last song/
I remember when, we first became a band,
We'd set up in the bedroom, practice all night long,
I remember when, we used to, now and then,
Keep the neighbourhood up, from the sound of our guitars/
I remember when, we'd all hop in the van,
Turn the radio on, we were off to see the world,
Wake up at ten, to do it all again,
Until the sun goes down, 'cause this is all we know/
This is the last song,.....so everybody sing along,
This is the last song,...../(X2)
I remember when, we first became a band,
We'd drive all night and talk about the world,
I remember when, we used to, now and then,
...Just sit and wonder where it all would go/
This is the last song,.....so everybody sing along,
This is the last song,...../(X2)
Behind the Song:
"I wrote this song at the very end of the writing process, I was so beat, and remember just feeling very emotionally/mentally drained. It was intended to be more of a sarcastic "ok, here it is, it's done. There you go, critique it, love it or hate it, it's all out on the table." It's funny, as an artist, you sometimes feel like people are waiting in the helms for the record to release, so they can cut it up, tear it apart, give their quick effortless 2 cents, and most of the time miss the point of what you were trying to say anyway. Haha, I know that sounds a tad negative, or perhaps a little dramatic, but believe me it often feels that way. So after all, it ended up turning into a song. When we all first started this, there wasn't anyone (outside of a few friends here and there), constantly trying to compare, dissect, or look for flaws/faults in what we did. It was (as it is now) an honest form of artistic expression, with just way less pressure/responsibility for the results. I love music, I love what we do, and these things are all just a part of the growing process and privilege it is to write/play music for a living. I accept that, and am thankful for everyone who still loves music for music." - Trevor McNevan (Thousand Foot Krutch)
