lyrics

The day the world came down
They never had a doubt
And now before the day is done
We’re finding out

That the last known survivor
On the day they rode away
Looked again in the mirror
Took a breath, looked around
Sat down at the table and wrote it down

If he knew then what they know now
Would he go
And what he left behind
Was never there to show

That the last known survivor
On the day they rode away
In a heartbreaking letter
Gave the world what it knew,
And he blew it all away along the way

Read all about the fallen sailors on the sea
Their names were everything they need
Now they’re only memories
Read all about the darkest summer while they sleep
They sent their letters on the sea
Only echoes from the deep
Now just letters on the beach

That the last known survivor
On the day they rode away
Opened up their old letter
That they left tucked away
To be found on the day they rode away

Read all about the fallen sailors on the sea
Their names were everything they need
Now they’re only memories
Read all about the darkest summer while they sleep
They sent their letters on the sea
Only echoes from the deep
He read the letters on the beach
