Last Man Standing Lyrics


Rise Against Last Man Standing

[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
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
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Standing in the crossfire next to you
Is all that I can do
[Chorus]
When the ammunition all runs out
And 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

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
In a world that isn't big enough for you
Well, someone has to lose

[Chorus]
When the ammunition all runs out
And 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
[Bridge]
And I'll storm this hill, take it all tonight (Woah, oh, oh)
And I'll plant this flag, claim this land as mine
All tonight
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
'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 (Woah, oh, oh, oh)
The last man standing
