"The Last Note" lyrics

"The Last Note"

One more spotlight starts to fade to black
One more winding road that I won't come back
The roar I lived for, it starts to die
And now it's time for me to say the long goodbye

Each mile, the road has worn me thin
Each song has got beneath my skin
The strings and amps still scream and cry
And I can't outrun the spinning hands of time

One last night before the silence falls
One last chord to echo through these walls

The final curtain falls, a quiet end to it all
Now it's just memories in my mind
Just fading lights and names, if I ever play again
Then let this last note never die

I burned up my youth almost every night
Each show became a battle and a fight
Raised on chaos, fed by the crowd
The guitar got heavy, time to lay it down

One last night before the silence falls
One last chord to echo through these walls

The final curtain falls, a quiet end to it all
Now it's just memories in my mind
Just fading lights and names, if I ever play again
Then let this last note never die

The final curtain falls, a quiet end to it all
Now it's just memories in my mind
Just fading lights and names, if I ever play again
Then let this last note never die

The final curtain falls, a quiet end to it all
Now it's just memories in my mind
Just fading lights and names, if I ever play again
Then let this last note never die
Never die

They gave me gold, they gave me a name
But every deal was signed in blood and flames
So here's my last will, my final testament, my sneer
I came, I ruled, now I disappear
