White Flag 04:08
I know you think that I shouldn't still love you, Or tell you that. But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it where's the sense in that? I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder Or return to where we were I will go down with this ship And I won't put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I'm in love and always will be I know I left too much mess and destruction to come back again And I caused nothing but trouble I understand if you can't talk to me again I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder, or return to where we were I will go down with this ship And I won't put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I'm in love and always will be The smoke hangs low in the heavy air. I'll sit on my roof, and tattoo "no regrets" under my left eye. That way when you look at me, You can always see the sky reflected from my soaring pupils. No loop holes, I have no motive other than to be with you. Weighed down with my dilated soul, I long to loose control. And spiral through fields of infinity. I held you inside of me, And sang haiku's, my lips pressed to your temples. Your body is a shrine that I bow before. I will speak till I spoke no more And touch existence with the tips of my fingers. The scent of you still lingers on who I am. Heads pressed to linoleum, Linoleum bound to the touch of your flesh I let my body rest through the rainy days, We try anything to chase the pain So score our love on stationary, Submerge me into the ether. They once called us both believers. But Your eyes now cut like a cleaver Though I did not faultier, I did not slip. I promised to something higher, I promised to live. I hold to my breath And go down with my ship.
