The Last Boy On Earth


"The Last Boy on Earth"

alone time 
in the corner

the wars took their toll
everyone now gone 
I was the last boy on Earth

when love was 
all that mattered

time ticks on and on and on
but only for so long 
then I have to leave the room

but where is the union 
when you are only 1, 
the last boy on Earth

and love 
is all that matters
