A very quick attempt at something more 'uplifting' / upbeat from my usual lyrics.

Last man standing,
I Wanna be,
The last man standing,
I Need to be,
The Last,
Last man standing, yeah

I don’t need the daylight,
Don’t need the rain,
I’ll dance under moonlight,
Free, unconstrained,
I’ve risen from the ashes,
Taken all my chances,
Just to be.

The last man standing,
Gotta be free,
The last man standing,
Just have to be,
The last,
The last man standing.

No I don’t need the daylight,
Don’t need the rain,
Gonna spread my wings, and take flight,
Get free from you, I can’t explain,
How I’ll rise, and I’ll thrive,
Reaching for my prize,
When I’ll be.

Every fight I fought, every scar I’ve worn,
Taught me something deeper, even when I’m torn,
No one's gonna hold me down, no one's gonna break my stride,
I'll break through these walls, take back my life.

And one day soon I will be,
The last man standing,
Up off my knees,
The last man standing,
The last,
The last,
The last man standing.

Yeah, I will be,
The last,
The last,
The last man standing.

OK, probably a 'touch' repetitive, and 'generic' but meh... I may come back to it later.
