Lyrics by Keith Gaxiola
Arranged by Big Dumb Animals

I can no longer carry alone
My canteen is empty and my legs give way
For I'm the last
I am the last

Why survive when I can join?
This world only brings me grief
No light - only darkness
No health - only disease

I seek a cure, bound to fail
I seek life when none can be found
This is the end of the road
They finally win

	Iron and steel flash before my eyes
	But I remain standing at the end
	From here to eternity
	This journey has only begun

Ten thousand years of darkness
Knowin' that I'll never fall asleep
I can finally rest
I can finally rest

	No I stand up and carry on
	I fight because I was meant to fight
	The only thing that keeps me going is will
	The will to live the will to fight
	The will to live the will to fight

	Iron and steel flash before my eyes
	But I remain standing at the end
	From here to eternity
	This journey has only begun
	The will to live the will to fight
	The will to live the will to fight
	The will to live the will to fight
	The will to live and I choose life
