"The Last One" lyrics

"The Last One"

You're bright and it's blinding
Just a small spark and you're flying
With your wax wings in a back room
Got my arms out tryna catch you
As you're falling through the ceiling
Took a big leap, now you're bleeding
With a broke nose and a dumb smile
Pretty mugshot for your profile

Caught in a streetlight
A lost cause in Levi's
But I'll always see great heights in you

I'll be the last one
I'll be the last one in your corner when the count's done
I'll be the last one
Holding my hands up
Stood on the bleachers, all alone after the crowd's gone
I'll be the last one
If you're the Syd Barrett of the band
I'm the girl on the train tracks holding your hand
Halfway to the moon on a plane you couldn't land
But I'll believe in you, still your number-one fan
Baby, after the crowd's gone
I'll be the last one

You're a dreamer in a parka
Send a flare up in the dark and I'll come find ya
Somewhere downtown
With your worst friends
On the last round, oh-oh

Caught in a streetlight
A lost cause in Levi's
But I'll always see great heights in you

And I'll be the last one
I'll be the last one in your corner when the count's done
I'll be the last one
Holding my hands up
Stood on the bleachers, all alone after the crowd's gone
I'll be the last one
If you're the Syd Barrett of the band
I'm the girl on the train tracks holding your hand
Halfway to the moon on a plane you couldn't land
But I'll believe in you, still your number-one fan
Baby, after the crowd's gone
I'll be the last one

When all the floodlights blow
And the sky is filled with smoke
You're still up there on your own
And I'm still the last to go

And I'll be the last one
I'll be the last one in your corner when the count's done
I'll be the last one
Holding my hands up
Stood on the bleachers, all alone after the crowd's gone
I'll be the last one
'Cause if you're the Syd Barrett of the band
I'm the girl on the train tracks holding your hand
Halfway to the moon on a plane you couldn't land
You were seeing castles, they were seeing sand
They're never gonna get it, no, they'll never understand
But I believe in you, I'm your number-one fan
So after the crowd's gone
I'll be the last one
