Flag - Joe Henry[00:00:00]
Written by:Joseph Lee[00:00:00]
Take that noise out in the street[00:00:28]
This rubble out from under my feet[00:00:31]
No rest for the weary in here[00:00:41]
And make a fuss you're a volunteer[00:00:45]
These days they lord above me[00:00:55]
Growing mean as they grow shorter[00:00:58]
Like a flag on a closing border now[00:01:01]
Closing right behind you[00:01:09]
In a crowd down off the hill[00:01:25]
Full of blood lust and good will[00:01:28]
We carried pride above our heads[00:01:39]
Like a flag we could cheer[00:01:42]
To wake the dead[00:01:45]
And when we could go no further[00:01:52]
And were drowning on a desert[00:01:55]
We raised our flag[00:01:58]
To follow the breath of god[00:02:00]
But it was blowing every which way[00:02:06]
I loved you long before I knew[00:02:22]
Love is something one decides to do[00:02:25]
My vanity and fear[00:02:36]
Conspired belief[00:02:37]
That love's[00:02:39]
Just a mirror for a thief[00:02:40]
So when you held me[00:02:49]
Tight against you[00:02:50]
And I mistook your heart for thunder[00:02:52]
And like a flag[00:02:55]
Hid behind and under you[00:02:57]
Who could blame me[00:03:04]
When you held me tight against you[00:03:32]
And I mistook your heart for thunder[00:03:35]
Like a flag[00:03:38]
I hid behind it[00:03:40]
Like a flag[00:03:42]
I'm hiding under you[00:03:43]
Now I hang my clothes out to dry[00:03:59]
Like waves of surrender they fly[00:04:02]
The whore of this world[00:04:12]
Looks old and played[00:04:14]
Still she peeks from the alley[00:04:15]
Like a waiting bride's maid[00:04:17]
Laugh or bleed as you need to[00:04:25]
Who of us doesn't know already[00:04:29]
Every flag flies like confetti now[00:04:32]
Laugh or bleed as you need to[00:04:39]
Who of us doesn't know already[00:04:42]
Every flag flies like confetti now[00:04:45]
