The Last Song Ever Written

This is the last song that was ever written
After this, nothing will rhyme
This is the last time that you'll ever see us
After this, you're gonna go blind
This is the last time that there'll be a last time
You'll wake up to the day without it
This is the last time that you're gonna lose someone
After this, it's you and your friends
It's you and your friends

This is the last song that was ever written
Melody is over and done
All of the words we sing erase each other
You only need songs when you're young
There was a strange goodbye outside the station
There was a letter three weeks later in the mail
We didn't know we knew you 'til we lost you
You tried to leave us all alone, we wish you had failed

We're gonna sing a song without words
And a tune you haven't heard in a long time
Not since the year you were two
And she sang to you in the wintertime
And it goes la la la la la la la la la la

Don’t open your [suitcase?]
There’s no one without me
You’ll come to me one day
They won’t take you away

I’ll wake in the morning
You’ll stand in the doorway
And he will appear
And then I’ll stay here somehow
Until you can come to
The place that we [taught?] you
