The Last to Go

The Last to Go - Sarah McLachlan

Lyrics by：Sarah McLachlan

Composed by：Sarah McLachlan

Produced by：Tony Berg/Will Maclellan

I found out the soul's the last to go

All the colours draining from the world I know

And all my careful calculations

Scattered on the wind

'Cause you told me I was special

I wanted to believe

I took your words I felt the weight of gold

Surrendered to my faith in love so bold

You built for me a pedestal

A cage I could not see

Relinquished my ambitions

So you could still feel free

Now who am I these bones and skin?

This old facade is paper thin

My armoury depleted my soldiers have deserted

I've given all I have to give

I've carved myself into the mold

I thought that I could fit in

But I'm never gonna fit in

So take it or leave it

I'm out I'm done bleeding for you

I'm so done with trying to concede

Smoothing over ruptures lies and greed

Searching for my part in it

My place to take the blame

It's exhausting and demeaning

Swallowing this shame

Now who am I these bones and skin?

This old facade is paper thin

My armoury depleted my soldiers have deserted

I've given all I have to give

I've carved myself into the mold

I thought that I could fit in

I'm never gonna fit in

So take it or leave it

I'm out I'm done bleeding for you
