Rise Against - Last Man Standing lyrics

[Rise Against - Last Man Standing lyrics]

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
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

Standing in the crossfire next to you
Is all that I can do

When the ammunition all runs out
The battlefields quiet down
Someone has to be the last man standing
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

And so today
The world looks like a broken toy
Once capable of endless joy
Is now just a memory instead
And we are backsliding, done trying
Tongue-tied
We don't even know what to say
We don't even know what to say
And all we want is something to do

In a world that isn't big enough for you
Someone has to lose

When the ammunition all runs out
The battlefields quiet down
Someone has to be the last man standing
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, yeah

And I'll storm this hill
Take it all tonight
And I'll plant this flag, claim
This land as mine
All tonight

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
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

Cause someone has to be the last man standing
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
