Battle Flag
Sitting on the floor
Pull my knees into my chest
Close my eyes and drop my head
Waiting for my mind to go numb
Doubts in my head
Getting stronger with every hit
Sinking me down into a world of shit
Waiting for life to come to me
Then like a desperate cry for a brighter day
I hear the drums echoing down the alleyway
And I close my eyes to take in the view
Of the jaded hope that's coming through
Singing a song that knows its sad
But waves that pain like a battle flag
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
The beat fades away
Drowned in the noise
I look ahead and I can see my choice
Waiting has to end
And like a desperate cry for a brighter day
I hear the drums echoing down the alleyway
And I close my eyes to take in the view
Of the jaded hope that's coming through
Singing a song that knows its sad
But waves that pain like a battle flag
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
Like a desperate cry for a brighter day
I hear the drums echoing down the alleyway
And I close my eyes to take in the view
Of the jaded hope that's coming through
Singing a song that knows its sad
But waves that pain like a battle flag
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
Because this world can never cut you down
Pull my knees into my chest
Close my eyes and drop my head
Waiting for my mind to go numb
Doubts in my head
Getting stronger with every hit
Sinking me down into a world of shit
Waiting for life to come to me
Then like a desperate cry for a brighter day
I hear the drums echoing down the alleyway
And I close my eyes to take in the view
Of the jaded hope that's coming through
Singing a song that knows its sad
But waves that pain like a battle flag
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
The beat fades away
Drowned in the noise
I look ahead and I can see my choice
Waiting has to end
And like a desperate cry for a brighter day
I hear the drums echoing down the alleyway
And I close my eyes to take in the view
Of the jaded hope that's coming through
Singing a song that knows its sad
But waves that pain like a battle flag
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
Like a desperate cry for a brighter day
I hear the drums echoing down the alleyway
And I close my eyes to take in the view
Of the jaded hope that's coming through
Singing a song that knows its sad
But waves that pain like a battle flag
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
Because this world still hasn't cut you down
Because this world can never cut you down
