The Last Song

Usually when I get addicted to a certain song, I keep on listening to it over and over again until I find another good song. Right now I’m addicted to The Last Song by the All-American Rejects. I know it’s a breakup song, but who says breakup songs are only for those going through breakups? I really love this song. I like how direct and frank the lyrics are. I AM JUST SO IN LOVE WITH IT. I listen to it before going to bed, while taking a bath, in between study sessions, HELL YEAH, I AM ADDICTED TO IT.


This may be the last thing that I write for long
Can you hear me smiling when I sing this song?
For you and only you

As I leave will you be someone to say good-bye?
As I leave will you be someone to wipe your eye?
My foot is out the door and you can't stop me now

You wanted the best
It wasn't me
Will you give it back?
Now I'll take the lead
When there's no more room to make it grow
I'll see you again
You'll pretend you're naive
Is this what you want?
Is this what you need?
How you end up? Let me know

As I go remember all the simple things you know
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope
That you will miss me when I'm gone
This is the last song

The hearts start breaking as the year is gone
The dream's beginning and the time rolls on
It seems so surreal
And now I sing it
Somehow I knew that it would be this way
Somehow I knew that it would slowly fade
Now I am gone
Just try and stop me now

You wanted the best
It wasn't me
Will you give it back?
Now I'll take the lead
When there's no more room to make it grow
I'll see you again
You'll pretend you're naive
Is this what you want?
Is this what you need?
How you end up? Let me know

As I go remember all the simple things you know
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope
That you will miss me when I'm gone
This is the last song

Will you need me now
You'll find a way somehow
You wanted to
I want it too

As I go remember all the simple things you know
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope
That you will miss me when I'm gone
This is the last song


I posted this for the sake of keeping my blog alive. Or is it because of something else? I don’t know. I really feel this song. It’s not like I want to do what the song suggests the singer did. I just think that it’s the best breakup song EVER. Well at least for me it is. Maybe I might post this kind of stuff every Thursday. I don’t know. It depends. I don’t think readers care about the songs inside my head at a given time. Or do they? Arrrgh. Too many questions. Let’s just let it end this way. Shall we?
