Flags and banners
1:03 AM, amen, oh man!
I just missed the last train
Now Im stuck here once again
Just me, the cold, and my pals vanity, the paper and the pen
Always trying to get home, dont get me wrong
I know Im saying nothing new
But did you ever feel so on your own, surrounded by kindness and concern
Family and friends, and totally alone?
While breaking down, deep dark down
While falling down, further, deeper down
Time went by so fast while I broke inside
Thought I was so tough and I was bleeding
But I dont cry for my lost youth, mistakes, lies I thought were true
Its just that in the end it finally really hurts
While I break down, deep dark down
While falling down, further, deeper down
So here I am, like so many times before
Scraping the dirt off my clothes as I get up from the floor
And Ill do it again, pick up the flags and banners and pretend
That I wont even care about next time that I fall down
That I break down, deep dark down
That I fall down, further deeper down.
