Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wait there's something I forgot to say
There's something always in the way
It hovers like a cloud and I can't see
Your eyes, your face
[Verse 2]
There's a road that I am staring at
A foot on both the brake and gas
And I don't know how to leave
Or how to stay
[Verse 3]
Standing in the crossfire next to you
Is all that I can do
[Verse 4]
But when the ammunition all runs out
And the battlefields quiet down
Someone has to be
The last man standing
[Verse 5]
When all is said and all is done
After every war is won
I promise I will be
The last man standing
Here for you
[Verse 6]
And so today
The world looks like a broken toy
Once capable of endless joy
Is now just a memory instead
[Verse 7]
And we are backsliding
Done trying
Tongue-tied we
Don't even know what to say
Don't even know what to say
[Verse 8]
And all we want
Is something to do
In a world that isn't big enough for you
Someone has to lose
[Verse 9]
But when the ammunition all runs out
And the battlefields quiet down
Someone has to be
The last man standing
[Verse 10]
When all is said and all is done
After every war is won
I promise I will be
Yeah, I promise I will be
The last man standing
The last man standing
[Verse 11]
And I'll storm this hill
Take it all tonight
And I'll plant this flag
Claim this land as mine
All tonight
[Verse 12]
Wait there's something I forgot to say
There's something always in the way
It hovers like a cloud and I can't see
Your eyes, your face
[Verse 13]
There's a road that I am staring at
A foot on both the brake and gas
And I don't know how to leave
Or how to stay
[Verse 14]
Because someone has to be the last man standing
[Verse 15]
When all is said and all is done
After every war is won
I promise I will be
I promise I will be
The last man standing
The last man standing
