Lyrics
Outside looking inside
You were the last child showing your misfit smile
They gave you a name, learned to play all their games
You had to jump so high some days just to be on your way
You couldn't stop the rain of the storm that called your name
You were the last child, you were the last child
And you might sail away forever to find your hom
And you might drift upon that water until you know,
That you are the only one to choose to find your way out of the blues
Modern times are turning to desperate times
We just don't realize it's the story of every child
We give them our name, they inherit our blame
For the things that we don't change will surely rise up again
But you couldn't stop that rain of the storm that called your name
You were the last child, you were the last child
And you might sail away forever to find your home
And you might drift upon that water until you know,
That you are the only one to choose to find your way out of the blues
They don't understand you want to cast off the chain you took on
As the last in line you paid the price to change your mind
You might sail away forever to find your home
And you might drift upon that water until you know,
That you are the only one to choose to find your way out of the blues
