The Last Mile Songtext
von The Very End

Another day, another death
The words of prey above us choke our breath
Can′t move upon this barren track
No inch forward, no inch back

Each thought like nailed into this hollow ground
But a silent, screaming, stillborn wish
Is right about to turn us inside out
Cause every now and then he's dismissed
And the contortionist fails again


I wonder when
This contortion will come to an end
Our twisted bodies, crooked smiles
Pave the last mile

Another day, another fight
It won′t be us who will die tonight
Right your backs and make a vow
No inch lost, not here, not now

Feel the weight of all things pull you down
But a silent, screaming, stillborn wish
Is right about to make him leave uptown
Cause every now and then he's dismissed
And the contortionist fails again


I wonder when
This contortion will come to an end
Our twisted bodies, crooked smiles
Pave the last mile
