[Intro]
[low growling slide + heartbeat kick]
Yeah… one more night…
[Verse 1]
Gravel in my bloodstream, smoke in my lungs
Chasin’ taillights of a love that’s long gone
She left me bleedin’ on the side of the road
Now I’m burnin’ rubber where the wild things go
Horns on the dashboard, cross around my neck
Every mile I’m closer to breakin’ my own neck
[Pre-Chorus]
The darkness whispers, “Boy you ain’t alone”
Feel the bass hittin’ straight down to the bone
[Chorus]
This is the outlaw’s last dance
Spinnin’ in the fire, takin’ every chance
Fuck tomorrow, I’m losin’ my mind tonight
Boots kickin’ up dust under blood-red lights
Drink the poison, let the sorrow take control
In this dark country we sell our fuckin’ souls
Outlaw’s last dance… hold on tight
[Verse 2]
Neon crosses fallin’ like the tears I hide
Ghosts in the rearview ridin’ by my side
I traded heaven for a bottle and a beat
Now the devil’s dancin’ in the passenger seat
Heart like a shotgun, loaded with regret
But the rhythm keeps callin’ and I ain’t dead yet
[Pre-Chorus]
The darkness whispers, “Boy you ain’t alone”
Feel the bass hittin’ straight down to the bone
[Chorus]
This is the outlaw’s last dance
Spinnin’ in the fire, takin’ every chance
Fuck tomorrow, I’m losin’ my mind tonight
Boots kickin’ up dust under blood-red lights
Drink the poison, let the sorrow take control
In this dark country we sell our fuckin’ souls
Outlaw’s last dance… hold on tight
[Bridge] [half-time, vulnerable then explosive build]
I was born in the wrong skin, livin’ the wrong life
Carved my name in the dirt with a rusted knife
If death wants me, let him come and take his swing
I’ll dance through the flames and still fucking sing…
[Final Chorus] [huge layered vocals, maximum energy]
This is the outlaw’s last dance
Last call for the damned, come take your stance
Fuck tomorrow, I’m burnin’ alive tonight
Boots stompin’ through the pain till the morning light
Raise your glass to the lives we destroyed
In this dark country we fill the void
Outlaw’s last dance…
Last dance… last dance…
[Outro]
[slide guitar screaming over massive drop, then fading heartbeat kick]
Yeah… we dance… till the end.
