The Last One - Edith Frost

Everybody wants someone to 
Compare to the last one in the picture 
But they never even think of what they’re missing 
And the last one never seems to leave the picture 

Everybody wants something more 
Out there in the big world of high business 
But they don’t go off and throw away their labors 
And abandon everything they’ve worked so hard for 

All the evidence in the world 
Won’t say anything about your conscience 
And i don’t believe you think of me that highly 
And i don’t consider this your final offer 

You took everything that you had 
And left me to sift through all the pieces 
And you never even told me what you wanted 
You’re the last one to explain your own behaviour
