Last - Val Emmich

I’m the kind that thinks

himself into extinction

who makes a map to scale

with block letters and captions

This dance is for the young

what decade is this?

I’m calling all the shots

it’s not good for business

I’m so good at starting things

but I’m less good at finishing

I’m trying to say the truth in a way

It sticks and stays

I’m trying to make something that takes

your breath away

something that lasts

more than a while

something that lasts

on and on

i’m the kind that shoots

before even aiming

i want my name in lights

in a star set into pavement

i’m holding myself in

bloated like a blowfish

when will i burst?

will anyone notice?

I don’t know

I’m so good at starting things

but I’m less good at finishing

I’m trying to say the truth in a way

It sticks and stays

I’m trying to make something that takes

your breath away

something that lasts

more than a while

something that lasts

on and on

I wanna last

I’m so good at starting things
