"
Last of a
Nation" was wrote around reminiscing and growing up as kids unaware and worry free of what the future holds. Before friends and loved ones emigrated to other countries.

LYRICS
I look around,
And things don't seem the same,
Now there striking down some empty streets,
And the people stand,
Where faces all have changed,
Oh i wish, It wasn't what i seen,
We're the last of a nation,
Use to be so tall,
We're the last of a nation,
But now where leaving it all,
We're the last of a nation,
Coming out so strong,
We're the last of a nation,
Now we're just drifting a long,
We're the last of a nation,
Theres nothing left to stay,
We're the last of a nation,
So we're walking away,
We're the last of a nation,
Somebody close the door,
We're the last of a nation,
Cause theres no one left here anymore,
This place i love,
Closing down,
I have no words,
Broken town,
I wanna get up, But my life was found,
Where the streets have no name i voiced my sound,
And it hurts to see,
The ones i love jump ship getting up to leave,
Why you have to go,
Nothing here for me,
And them lines echo out from the minds of the free,
Out there looking for a way out, If only right here they could stay now,
But the reality just isn't as bright,
And the truth hurts some times, It isn't as nice,
We loose sight in this life we lead,
We choose wrongs over right in need,
See we where built on a solid foundation,
Now round here where the last of a nation,
We're the last of a nation,
Use to be so tall,
We're the last of a nation,
But now we're leaving it all,
We're the last of a nation,
Coming out so strong,
We're the last of a nation,
Now we're just drifting a long,
Were the last of a nation,
Theres nothing left to stay,
We're the last of a nation,
So where walking away,
We're the last of a nation,
Somebody close the door,
We're the last of a nation,
Cause theres no one left here anymore,
Ohhhhhhhh 3x
We're the last of a nation,
Use to be so tall,
We're the last of a nation,
But now we're leaving it all,
We're the last of a nation,
Coming out so strong,
We're the last of a nation,
Now we're just drifting a long,
We're the last of a nation,
Theres nothing left to stay,
We're the last of a nation,
So we're walking away,
We're the last of a nation,
Somebody close the door,
We're the last of a nation,
Cause theres no one left here anymore,
We're the last of a nation (repeated)
