The Last Shall Be The First

We?ve been busting up rocks and getting cold-cocked by the best and the worst.
?The last shall be first.?
It?s not a right I can claim but if this is a fight, then we?ll win it this time.
We?ve been spinning our tires and crossing our wires in the burned out bars where we burn like we?re stars.
What is this? What is this? Entertainment?
It?s time to hit the pavement tonight.
Waiting for salvation in an envelope and spend every evening by the telephone.
If you thought that we?d give up by now?oh no.
We?ve been diving for wrecks.
We?ve been writing bad checks.
We?ve been running on empty.
Isn?t it about time?
How far can you run when you won?t wear your shoes?
Where is the light they want us to use?
What is a dream that is dreamt just for breaking?
Who?s going to tell me what a mess I?ve been making?
Waiting for salvation in an envelope and spend every evening by the telephone.
If you thought that we?d give up by now?oh no.
