Dearly beloved,   We're gathered here to mourn   The death of the young one   The death of your first born   And he tried, tried to understand   Why his lungs gave out.   His last dying words went out from them      It isn't enough for your family   It isn't enough for your father   But is it enough to break your spirits?   And he's breaking like a thousand windows   But he's on the pane that keeps the glass from hitting the floor      He's the kind of guy you wish would just leave   He wears his heart on his sleeve   You won't see any pictures with the whole family   He doesn't wait    He just goes out of control   Before the cops know   A man who can kill two stones with one bird      Please step back from that highway   Don't you see it goes my way   Please step back from that highway      If you're number eight, then he's number nine.   It adds up half the time   A teller with no fortune   A body left out to find   I once was told that white gold looks so pretty on your skin   The jewelery which covers up all the rusting within.      Please step back from that highway   Don't you see it goes my way   Please step back from that highway      It isn't enough for your family   It isn't enough for your father   But is it enough to break your spirits?   He's kind of like the wind   You can't see it, but you feel it   And that's the only way you know that he's there   And how can you leave a place you've never been to?   Or run away from something that's not chasing   And it never was      Please step back from that highway   Don't you see it goes my way   Please step back from that highway
