Pet Shop Boys — The Last to Die

[Verse 1] We took the highway till the road went black We marked Truth Or Consequences on our map A voice drifted up from the radio We saw the voice from long ago [Chorus] Who'll be the last to die for a mistake The last to die for a mistake Whose blood will spill, whose heart will break Who'll be the last to die for our mistake [Verse 2] The kids asleep in the backseat We're just countin' the miles you and me We don't measure the blood we've drawn anymore We just stack the bodies outside the door [Chorus] Who'll be the last to die for a mistake The last to die for a mistake Whose blood will spill, whose heart will break Who'll be the last to die for our mistake [Non-Lyrical Post-Chorus] [Bridge] The sun sets in flames as the city burns Another day gone down as the night turns And I hold you here in my heart As things fall apart [Verse 3] A downtown window flushed with light Faces of the dead at five I see a martyr's silent eyes Petition drivers as we pass by [Chorus] Who'll be the last to die for a mistake The last to die for a mistake Whose blood will spill, whose heart will break Who'll be the last to die [Chorus] Who'll be the last to die for a mistake The last to die for a mistake Darlin' your tyrants and kings form the same fate Strung up at your city gates And you're the last to die for our mistake [Non-Lyrical Post-Chorus]
