make me last
make me last
through our love

make me last
new masquerade
to be absorbed

I had to act before
now I talk
and make me last

make me last
through our love
make me last

bring on the microphones
hidden under stones
record my sobs

in baritones
and make me last
make me last

through our love
make me last
in the new west

the orange groves
grow like a plague
wherever you go

I told the heads
we'll show the world
we'll film ourselves in history and chrome

and I said that
just not sure
make me last

through our love
box office law
simple and grand

an endless stream
one can draw
the flicker of light

piano keys
a silent screen, a silent star
make me last

make me last
through our love
make me last

in the new west
the orange groves
grow like a plague

wherever you go
I told the heads
we'll show the world

we'll film ourselves in history and chrome
and I said that, just not sure
what's to be done

it's thunder town they'll do
what they can to hold you down (x 4)
