i have never felt worse.
nightmare come true
am i the last man standing
is this a battle or the war that i lost
am i the last man standing
even with my face in the dirt
and my hands clutching the grass for support
am i the last man standing
even if there's a hole in my chest
am i the last man standing
if i have trouble keeping my pose
if i'm a duke special character drowning in my own flood
am i the last man standing
is this hope that i'm defending
already dead
is this heart that i've never wanted back
all I have left
am i the last man standing
or the last fool to fight a war that's lost
i built my world around…
i built my world around…
my feet have lost the ground…
am i the last man standing
or will you join
am i the last one
will you rewrite the song
hope can kill me now, i know
but how can i give it up
oh, they all call me back, the frontier's lost
but i can't go back
there's nothing there

Hi Straycat
Good start, rich and full of imagery - some is contradictory though and last man standing/face in the dirt is an example.
I like the idea of this being the last man standing for ideals that have long since gone it works very well and is a slightly different take on the assignment.
Good start

hey bob.
thanks.
it's less like standing for ideals(or only subconsciously.. for the ideals of devotion and faithfulness and not interfering in someone else's relationships)... it's .. about.. being dumped. basically. cause it#s all i can think about now. the song is about the state, when you realize you're about to be dumped, but can't give up on hope and can't believe this is really happening. you are down and the saddest person in the world(face in the dirt... clutching the grass...) and you feel like you're the only person still clinging to this relationship and wanting to make it work again (the last man standing). and you hope the person will see that and feel like that, too and will join you so this has another chance. but well... it hasn't. you just don't see it yet, because no clear "goodbye" has been said yet. and it's twice as bad, because none of this really is your fault. and you can do nothing about it.
yep. my life su.cks right now.
cheers,
straycat.
