last man returning

V5.5

(Verse 1) Smoke on the wind, the battlefield sleeps, Echoes of brothers buried deep, Steel lies broken where heroes fell, I walk alone from a living hell. Armor cracked and stained in red, Ghosts march silent inside my head, Victory tastes like ash and rain, A crown of thorns, a cloak of pain. (Pre-Chorus) No songs, no cheers, no voices call, Just one man left who saw it all. (Chorus) I’m the last man returning home, Through shattered fields I walk alone, With torn steel skin and a wounded soul, A silent king with a broken throne. (Verse 2) Blade still heavy in trembling hand, Blood not mine on the hilt I stand, Every step feels carved in stone, Miles away but still not home. I hear their cries in the cold night air, Fallen brothers everywhere, I carry more than scars that show, Their final breath inside my bones. (Pre-Chorus) The war is done but it won’t release, No victory brings a warrior peace. (Chorus) I’m the last man returning home, Through shattered fields I walk alone, With torn steel skin and a wounded soul, A silent king with a broken throne. (Bridge) Will they see a hero’s face, Or just a man time can’t erase? Will I find warmth or empty doors, A life I knew… is mine no more. (Solo Section) (Guitars cry like the fallen in the night) (Verse 3) Dawn breaks slow on a distant hill, My legs are weak but I’m walking still, The gates appear through weary eyes, A fragile end to endless fights. Armor rusted, spirit worn, A man reborn, a man still torn, No glory shines in what remains, Just flesh and steel and quiet pain. (Chorus) I’m the last man returning home, Through shattered fields I walk alone, With torn steel skin and a wounded soul, A silent king with a broken throne. (Outro) Lay down the sword, let silence speak, The strong may fall, the broken still breathe… I came back alive — but not complete
