VERSE1
See the smoke it clearing
Are those really voices Im hearing (D-Em)
Well Ill be damned thought I was the only one left alive
Thought youd be gone long before
Cant say how glad I am to see youve survived
The earth can be so lonely
When youre the only Man alive
Man alive Man alive
 
VERSE2
The blinding flash of light burned in my mind
Faces not expecting terror
Guess youve done something that made God smile
To protect you from disaster
So I would not be the only Man alive
Man alive Man alive
 
MIDDLE
Gone gone are all the trees
Standing so tall Branches in the breeze
Gone gone are all the people
So many lives Why not me
 
(INSTRUMENTAL)
 
VERSE3
Though my minds not easing
There is this stillness Im feeling (D-Em)
The silence of the night is all I can hear
Can I reach for stars I cant even see
Is it up to me to plan my own destiny
The earth can be so lonely
When youre the only Man alive
Man alive Man alive
