"WHITE FLAG" lyrics

"WHITE FLAG"

Oh I'm up against the ropes
I can hear the wolves knocking at my door
But I can hear that battle cry
Your drums in the deep and I have death in my eyes

So tonight let me feel no pain
Let the fear wash away
And the lambs lay at bay
And oh that reapers got my name
But I will never feel no shame
'Cause I'm never gonna wave the white flag

Oh I'm cut deep to the bone
I see children in the streets
With a needle and a spoon
But I won't let them die in vain
I will be the very hand
That breaks the weathered chain

So tonight let me feel no pain
Let the fear wash away
And the lambs lay at bay
And oh that reapers got my name
But I will never feel no shame
'Cause I'm never gonna wave the white flag
No no
Never gonna wave that white flag

Oh it's getting hard to breathe
There's a hard rain a coming
And it boils from beneath
Oh and I'm still on my feet
As I watch strings of lightning
As they fire from the east

So tonight let me feel no pain
Let the fear wash away
And the lambs lay at bay
And oh that reapers has got my name
But I will never feel no shame
'Cause I'm never gonna wave the white flag
No no
Never gonna wave that white flag
