Lyrics of Last Stand by Adelitas Way
verse
I′m all alone
You're far away
Never learned from my mistakes
I should′ve known
Just what to say
To make you wanna stay
You're always the one giving
I was always there to take it
Take your heart and break it
Oh-oh
chorus
And I'll never make it without you
I need a second chance
′Cause I wanna make it about you
I′m making my last stand
It took a moment to say
It wasn't you, it was me
I couldn′t let you in
Now I'm ashamed I pushed you away from me, oh, oh, oh, oh
Now I′m afraid it's too late to save again
verse
Miss you the most when I sleep
Turning nightmares into dreams
Can′t lose hope
It's killing me (killing me)
I'm the one who made you leave
But if I just take a chance now
Open up and finally reach out (reach out)
Can I save it all somehow
Oh-oh
And I′ll never make it without you
I need a second chance
′Cause I wanna make it about you
I'm making my last stand
It took a moment to say
It wasn′t you, it was me
I couldn't let you in
Now I′m ashamed I pushed you away from me
Now I'm afraid it′s too late to save again, oh
bridge
I'm all alone
You're far away
I finally found the words to say
Oh-oh
chorus
And I′ll never make it without you (sorry for the way I shut you out)
I need a second chance
′Cause I wanna make it about you (sorry for the way)
I'll make it my last stand
It took a moment to say it wasn′t you, it was me
I couldn't let you in
Now I′m ashamed I pushed you away from me (I couldn't let you in)
Now I′m afraid it's too late to save again, oh, oh, oh, oh
Won't be afraid, won′t push you away
