Last Words by Animal Flag Lyrics

The last words from your mouth
Shook the rafters of this broken home and house
They ricocheted off the walls
And spent the next year tumbling through the spring and fall
And in my ears I hear them still
As steady as the land that you left when you told me
That some day I'd understand
You'd think I'd know by now
What you meant by all those tattered sounds and vowels
But even still they drift in me
Every ounce of all that they could mean
And when your wondering is through
All your restless nights will look back at you and smile
To show you that you're fine
And she will kiss you through the night
And hold you by the hand
To remind you of a love that you'll just have to understand
