Flags - The Virginmarys

Six years sober, I’m still hungover

My face on the edge like the white cliffs of Dover

A different persona each chip on my shoulder

I’m another year colder

I’m another year colder

We self-medicated, our lives spent sedated

Berated, I hated all the shit we created

I left you alone and you left me a loner

Still I fight like a soldier

Tell me it’s over

Tell me the weight of the world will be lifted from my shoulders

Tell me it’s over, tell me it’s over

I drove to the edge and looked down at the bottom

The waves so toxic and rotten

Ripped into shreds, like some loose threads of cotton

Gone but never forgotten

I fight like a soldier

So tell me the weight of the world will be lifted from my shoulders

I fight like a soldier, fight like a soldier

Who won’t survive?

Who won’t survive?

Who won’t survive?

Who won’t survive?

Who won’t survive?

Who won’t survive?

Who wants to die?

These flags to burn

You’re strong enough to be broken

The only thing never in doubt

A truth that can only be spoken

For anyone living without

You’re strong enough to be broken

The only thing never in doubt

A truth that can only be spoken

For anyone living without

These flags to burn

These flags to burn

You’re strong enough to be broken

The only thing never in doubt

A truth that can only be spoken

For anyone living without

You’re strong enough to be broken

The only thing never in doubt

A truth that can only be spoken

For anyone living without

You’re strong enough to be broken

The only thing never in doubt

A truth that can only be spoken
