Queen AI - Last Man On Earth

“Last Man on Earth” is a powerful, cinematic rock ballad that explores the haunting beauty of a world left in silence. Combining emotional depth with the grandeur of classic rock, it tells the story of the final survivor of humankind — a man walking through the ruins of everything we once were.

The song unfolds like a requiem for humanity: from quiet piano and melancholic vocals to epic orchestral swells and layered guitars that echo through the emptiness. It is a reflection on love, greed, creation, and self-destruction — and on the fragile spark of hope that remains even when everything else is gone.

(Intro Vocals)

I am the last man on earth
The world lies still
Ashes whisper, the echoes chill

No voice but mine beneath the grey
I sing for hearts that burned away

They wrote their songs on walls of stone
Then drowned their truth in seas of gold
They chased the stars, yet died alone
Their hearts grew young, but souls grew old

I am the last man on earth
Keeper of tears and broken dreams
I am the last man on earth
A witness bound to what we dreamed
I am the last man on earth
A broken heart, a broken soul
Still singing for the world below

They learned to conquer, not to feel
Turned holy words to iron steel
They crowned their greed, they stole the skies
And called it truth while feeding lies

They never listened to their heart
They never learned to see the stars
They never cared for what was true
They never healed what love could do

I am the last man on earth
The echo of all human dreams
I am the last man on earth
Still burning bright through shattered schemes
I am the last man on earth
A bleeding heart, a haunted soul
Still singing loud to save it whole

(Guitar Solo)

Oh love, you fragile spark of grace
You won the dark in cold embrace
A fleeting kiss, a trembling hand
The only truth we understand

I am the last man on earth
Keeper of tears and broken dreams
I am the last man on earth
A witness bound to what we dreamed
I am the last man on earth
A broken heart, a broken soul
Still singing for the world below

Visually and sonically inspired by the dramatic energy of 1970s and 80s rock opera, “The Last Man on Earth” combines emotion, atmosphere, and storytelling into one final anthem for the end of time.
