This is the first (thing I remember)
Now it's the last (thing left on my mind)
Afraid of the dark (do you hear me whisper)
An empty heart (replaced with paranoia)
Where do we go (life's temporary)
After we're gone (like new years resolutions)
Why is this hard (do you recognize me)
I know I'm wrong (but I can't help believing)
I'm so lost
I'm barely here
I wish I could explain myself
But words escape me
It's too late
To save me
You're too late
You're too late

You're cold with disappointment
While I'm drowning in the next room
The last contagious victim of this plague between us
I'm sick with apprehension
I'm crippled from exhaustion
And I dread the moment when you finally come to kill me

This is the first (thing I remember)
Now it's the last (thing left on my mind)

An empty heart (replaced with paranoia)
Where do we go (life's temporary)

Why is this hard (do you recognize me)
I know I'm wrong (but I can't help believing)

the letter before the song is really sad. if you get the cd and just let the cd play.. it goes to it. but it's not part of the song.

This is a beautiful song. I love the contrast between Tom's voice and Marks throughout the song. If a great song to follow up the reading of the letter previous to it. Beautiful.

I think someone said that the spoken portion before this song was a letter from Tom's mother, however, it's actually letters that Mark's grandfather wrote to his wife (Mark's grandmother) during World War II.

So sad and yet so powerful and amazing. I can picture the whole scene, with the grandmother and the grandafather during a war. i love the words they use to describe the pain and suffeing, my segment is ''You're cold with disappointment
While I'm drowning in the next room
The last contagious victim of this plague between us
I'm sick with apprehension
I'm crippled from exhaustion
And I dread the moment when you finally come to kill me'' It's just so moving and touching.

This is by far my favorite song on the cd.. Yeah a lot of people have shit with Blink 182, but fuck it, I have listened to them since I was 9. Who cares if they think they are punk rock!

Love the chorus. I hesitate to use the word emotional, because so many people try and and relate to songs just for the sake of it. I don't know what the song is about, and I don't really care. It's the melody that speaks to me here, not the lyrics. Hell, I'm an AFI fan. Lyrics need to be good!! This song is damn good though.

It's weird listening to this song, after not having heard it for a year or so, and listening to older blink first. Did they ever mature with this one, and make an amazing CD. And this song has to be one of the most beautiful ones they've ever done.
