We drew the lines across the silence
We built our walls out of mistakes
We held our breath like it could save us
While everything around us started to break
You said love shouldn't feel like warfare
But still we carried all our scars
Two tired hearts on different front lines
Still hoping we could meet halfway in the dark
Maybe we were running toward a truth we weren't ready for
Maybe all we ever needed was one more reason to stay
But you were the last thing we fought
for The only thing worth bleeding for
Even when the fire faded We kept reaching through the smoke
And I don't know if we saved us Or just learned to lose slow
But you were the last thing we fought
for Even when we couldn't hold on anymore
Instead of making a name for themselves by biting their shoes
If you don't eat anything,
you can't understand the taste
Similarly,
if you don't mix with people,
you can't get to know them
I beg if we break up,
they let your parents know Your mama just seen me now,
say make a
help and carry bag,
go Johnshon Ask who now or ask what?
I know it's here they talk If I ever give up,
make I beg
Nah,
I don't have to be the last bus stoppo If you're 60 years old,
still gay hoppo
Nah,
Baba gon' go tell us who gon' make our lives laugh
Who their life still gay hoppo alive
They're appalling the telephone
Well, man,
tell me don't, tell me don't, tell me don't
I don't know
Oh, *
You were the last thing we fought for
Even when we couldn't hold on anymore
And if the world collapsed behind
us At least we held the line a while
If this is where our story
ends I'll remember every mile
Not every war has victors Some just teach you what love's for
And ours was a quiet surrender To a battle we couldn't win anymore
Cause you were the last thing we fought
for The one truth we kept dying for
Even when the night was heavy We kept reaching toward the dawn
And maybe love is just learning how to lose And still move on
Cause you were the last thing we
fought for Long after the war was gone
