Jami: “This is kind of our bravado coming out for one of a few times on the record. Just looking around at what other people are producing and not being too fond of it. It’s just a moment that you’re having where you’re feeling like the best is behind us, even just in terms of music. It’s something...
[Chorus]
Last ones left
Are they too stupid to see?
Last ones left
What we are destined to be
[Verse 1]
Spit in their face and they'll react with a smile
Pick at the details and you'll find ripe denial
Fake kindness, bootlicking spreads like the plague
Just for a place at the emperor's feet
Is this what you lab rats wanted?
A bunch of nice guys playing friends to get paid
A bunch of cover acts rolling around on the floor
The heroes of old rolling deep in their graves
[Chorus]
Last ones left
Are they too stupid to see?
Last ones left
What we are destined to be
[Verse 2]
It's the difference between reality and parody slipping away
"Well, the success is good for all of us"
They try to explain
So let's get it straight
You are a clone, a spy
A moment in time
A petulant child
A pitiful effigy of what we would never be
Less than nothing to me
[Chorus]
Last ones left
Are they too stupid to see?
Last ones left
What we are destined to be
The last real ones left
Are they too stupid to see?
Last ones left
What we are destined to be
[Verse 3]
You drain the life out of all that's pure
When you don't ignore
Desperate bribes for acceptance through guarantees
I am the last one left
The answer flows through me
You gave them life
But they can't pay for
All that we are
Last ones
[Outro]
Last ones left

JM: “Other than ‘You and You Alone,’ I would say ‘Last Ones Left’ is pretty much the most bitter-ass fucking song on the album. It’s about pride and it’s about social climbing. It’s pretty much saying we’re the last ones left on the surface of real bands that have worked and climbed that fucking lad...
