"The Last Younger Son"

My last name is Younger I am the last Younger son
The name I was given
Was Luke 15:21
3 days of thunder 3 days of rain
I come to be in this world with a number and a name

My last name is Younger I am the last Younger son
I stand as a witness to the things I have done
And I have caused sorrow yet I too have been pained
You cannot be in this world and not get stained

My last name is Younger I am the last Younger son
I once had beliefs but now I have none
There is no forgiveness for old guns and knives
Perhaps it is fitting we don't recall our past lives

My last name is Younger I am the last Younger son
There is a secret I never told anyone
Sometimes I see something in a few certain eyes
And I behold the future of how and when a man dies

My last name is Younger I am the last Younger son
I won't get no older than the age of 21
As I look in the mirror I see the future once more
And an old friend is waiting just beyond the closed door

My last name is Younger I am the last Younger son
The name I was given
As Luke 15:21
3 days of thunder 3 days of rain
I come to be in this world with a number and a name
