Last to Know

Lord, lord, what you got in store for me?
You gotta give me your word
That this boy won’t bleed
With arms too short to box with you;
What’s your plan? Tell me and I’ll follow through…
Why am I the last one to know?
I built up a temple inside with words inscribed
Over the door «I'm right»
And one night I invited you in for awhile
And when you walked out the whole place came down…
But why am I the last one to know?
Why am I always the last one to know?
I don’t like the sound
Of my heart breaking down
It seems the more I’ve searched
In the end the less I’ve found
The harder I try to be right
I get it wrong every time
Wherever my heart goes
I’m the last one to know
I’m lost. Lord, I’m lost…
My last deal gone down
And I’m the last to know how
But, somehow, I’ll make you proud of me
The way you’re proud of the moon and the sea…
Why am I the last one to know?
Why am I always the last one to know?
