Regarding Steven

Well, I've guessed your name and I'm sure you know mine
I'd like to discuss our mutual friend
I can't help but feel that I left him behind
Does he still stay with you or did his pain ever end?
I guess, I don't deserve to know if he ever let go
I guess, I don't really need to see

If he wound up with you or did he ever break free
We were both young, took us in
And taught us to play survival games
He'd lost so much that you let him win

But I had a home so it just wasn't the same
I had the strength to look you in the eye and say goodbye
I was lucky and I didn't have to play
Does he still stay with you or did he get away

I used what I had and I escaped
I smelled something good and I followed it's track
But all he could smell was the world that you shaped
It took all my strength so I just couldn't look back

I remember him calling after me
I keep that memory, the last thing he screamed aloud
Was hey, don't you leave me alone
Yeah, he might live with you but he called me his home
Yeah, I guessed your name and someday so will he

'Cause one of these nights he's gonna break free
'Cause one of these nights he's gonna break free
'Cause one of these nights he's gonna break
