I want to be the second to last man on earth

I wanna up stage the lead in a climactic movie scene
I wanna feel the heat of public rage press upon my cheeks
I wanna be less scared around those minds still asleep
I wanna run two miles naked down regent street

I want to play the cello to confused teenage fans
I want to discover unfucked humans in an unfucked land
I want to build a viking ship with my bare hands
I want to be somewhere no one understands the little gestures in the way I stand

I wanna save an unsuspecting life from an overdose
I wanna say I love you to, then let eachother go
I wanna listen in on my ex girlfriends new boyfriends phone
I wanna feel alive before I\'m the new barmaids idea of too old

I want to gather up the cities rations then watch them burn
I want to be the second to last man on earth
I want to walk the world in my favourite T-shirt
I want to be in the company of like minded thinkers who start every sentence with \'for what it\'s worth\'

I don\'t think I want anything, nobody else, hasn\'t ever wanted, and maybe the same goes for everyone, I\'ll ever meet. Uniqueness seems like nothing but a modern myth to me. If we\'re all unique then we\'re all the same aren\'t we? We\'re quite simple underneath all of our bullshit I think therefore, when hungry eat, when tired sleep, when happy repeat, when unhappy leave
