[Win Butler] One last dance Here at the end of the empire
Makes me cry Watching the moon on the ocean Where California used to be It´s not half bad, oh Spend half your life being sad Well, don´t be scared, oh-oh Just chronically impaired, oh-oh Just take my hand, oh-oh Standing at the end of the American Empire
[Win Butler] One last song Here at the end of the movie They seemed so sure At least that´s the way I remember the war When New York used to be It´s not half bad, oh-oh Spending half your life being sad, woah
Don´t you weep, oh-oh Half your life fast asleep, oh-oh Feeling uninspired, oh Standing at the end of the American Empire II. Last Round
[Win Butler & RÊgine Chassagne] And we know that it´s time to go Heard the news on the radio One last round before we go Through the pale atmospheric glow And the oxygen´s getting low Sing a song that we used to know One last round before we go One last round before we go III. Leave The Light On
[Win Butler]
(So sad)
[Win Butler] Didn´t use to get high Didn´t use to drink and I Didn´t use to think I Could ever dream about losing you
[Win Butler] Didn´t use to get low This time of night and I Didn´t use to walk home In the moring light Without you Without you
[Win Butler] Didn´t use to get high
Didn´t use to drink Didn´t use to think I Could ever dream about losing you, you But I do
[Win Butler] It´s you and I, it´s do or die Suicide mission, baby by my side We got one life and half of it´s gone You know I can´t sleep with the television on
[ Win Butler] Didn´t use to get high With you by my side (Leave the light on)
