The Last Romance

Your face looks so sweet, even in the wars

You took the wrap for me, but I fell on my own sword

And now the sordid details, are all over page 4

Honey, we made the news and that's all we did this for

We drove for centuries without a sound or fuss

State penitentiaries weren't made for souls like us

There will be blood, but you will be loved

The world will know, but it's only us

When I lay me down

I pray we, keep each day

Please stay with me

We painted the town red, now everyone in the town's dead

You and I win again, best friends till our last breath

Live by the gun, die by the gun

Live by the sea, live while we're young

Take from the rich, give to the poor

Run to the hills, run from the law

Ride shotgun with our crossbow

Head out north where the sun grows

Start fresh where they don't know

The things we did

The stick-up kids

We laughed, we cried

We lived, we died

We came, we saw

We conquered them all

When I lay me down

I pray we, keep each day

Please stay with me

Don't listen to what they say

Don't take the medication

They never loved us anyway

Never liked our generation

They will try and keep you

But you're still mine

And I love you, and you're strong dear

And we're fine

So, remember when the time comes

When it's over and it's all done

Meet me in the north, by the edge of the sun

When I lay me down

I pray we, keep each day

Please stay with me
