White Flag - Lakes

I’ll be coming home by the end of this song.

I’ll read you what I wrote

And let you have what you own

If I could find a flag, could you please make it white?

I know this is right, I know

This is right,

And I’m beginning to see

I always thought that I had to change the world,

But my world came down tonight,

I thought that I had to win the war,

but I’m so lost in the fight.

And so I’m letting this be, and I’m beginning to see.

I’ve got to let this be.

Feed me to the birds if it helps them grow strong.

Or take this all away, if it’s part of the song.

Or feed me what I need, if you’d like me to fight.

I know this is right, I know

This is right

And I’m beginning to see

I always thought that I had to change the world,

But my world came down tonight

I thought that I had to win the war,

But I’m so lost in the fight.

And so I’m letting this be, and I’m beginning to see.

I’ve got to let this be.

I’ve got to let this be.

And If I’m lost and alone,

If I’m empty and dry,

could you bring me inside?

would you bring me inside?

I always thought that I had to change the world

But my world came down tonight

I thought that I had to win the war

But I’m so lost in the fight.

And so I’m letting this be, and I’m beginning to see.
