White Flag

Stare if you stare At the stars, the stars They’ll burn out and fall In the fields that surround you If you won’t look up If you keep your chin down Raise the white flag Just raise the white flag If you’re just gonna cave in Just lay down and die Just lay down and die Trust me, trust me I know you feel it deep down Just breathe, just breathe If you want it bad enough It’ll come to you You’re giving up all you are Why do you need a thousand eyes pointing back at you? Why do you want your name in the empty banner Of those with naught to say? I can see you slipping I can see you slipping away again I can see you drowning in the midnight tide In the tide I can see the sunlight pierce through the door You are all the things I choose to ignore I am a starving man who does impossible things And you can’t see fire if you’re standing in flames Just raise the white flag Trust me, trust me I know you feel it deep down Just breathe, just breathe If you want it bad enough It’ll come to you If you want it It’ll come to you But you don’t want it I can see the sunlight pierce through the door You are all the things I choose to ignore Trust me Just raise the white flag Just breathe Just raise the white flag Burn and fall --- White Flag - Glass Cloud
