Last （后）-The Unthanks

We are lost

We are lost

We are lost

On and on and on we go

But back and back and back we go

The wisdom thrown out long ago

The great unlearning has begun

And we are lost

Time will pass and soon we'll know

What sons and daughters have to show

For all our speed and all our waste

Do you have a nasty taste

The frightened people still believe

In gods and heroes and pure blood

The blood still flows and mums still lose

Their sons and daughters in the fields

The fields will soon be under seas

Continue doing as you please

But we won't last

We won't last

We won't last

The girl from 22is lonely

The boy from 23is lonely

The girl from 24is lonely

The girl from 22's moved out

She's moved into another town

She'll move into another street

Another street where she won't meet

The boy from 23who's lovely

The boy from 23is lonely

Cause we are last

The past is gone we don't deny

Cold and cruel without a lie

But failure is a victory

If from it we all get to see

That we are lost

We won't last

Remember the past

And we might last

Remember the past

Man should be the sum of his story

Man should be the sum of his story

Man should be the sum of his story
