Jacob Yancho - The Last Man On Earth

Well, I guess I'm the last man on earth
And there's hardly no hope for rebirth
For this morning when I awoke
All the world had gone up in smoke

I'm worn out and weary and stranded
Barefoot and empty handed
Just wanderin' and walkin' on through
Through the world that I once knew

It seems that I've been left behind
With the ghosts and the phantoms of time
And it's too easy to get lost
When the whole world's one big cloud of dust

I walked up to the shops and the stores
But they wasn't there anymore
I walked down to the homes in the town
But there wasn't none left around

The green had been stripped from the trees
The blue had been sucked from the seas
The sun had been swept from the skies
And the light had been seized from my eyes

Through the ruins and rubble I roam
All alone in the great unknown
For mankind has been overthrown
And look what they done to our home

How much, how much could they feel
To be so hard and colder than steel?
And how breathless can be their kiss
That a whole world can cease to exist?

But the truth is as dry as the land
And it falls on this last hungry man
And it ain't from nobody else
We done what we done to ourselves

Well, I'm the very last man on earth
And I'm sorry for all that it's worth
And my only hope is you see
That, my love, you don't end up like me
