Flying That Tattered Flag (Female Punk)
[verse 1] Walls are closing in You said with a grin. I knew you were wrong A little wild and head-strong. I knew if it would last It wouldn’t last for long Until this world pushed us away For the rest of our days. [pre-chorus] She holds the line She won’t compromise She says she don’t But she thinks about us All the time [chorus] Raise that tattered flag To them it’s Just a dirty old rag. My love up in the wind And written on my skin. You’ll always be my greatest sin I’d do it all again. I’ll love you till the end Even if, I’m left holding the bag I’ll still be here, Flying that tattered flag. [verse 2] We’ve always known This ain’t our world. Where we could live our lives As simple boys and girls. Even though we lost Its your face that still haunts My every dream and thoughts. [pre-chorus] She holds the line She won’t compromise She says she don’t But she thinks about us All the time [chorus] Raise that tattered flag To them it’s Just a dirty old rag. My love up in the wind And written on my skin. You’ll always be my greatest sin I’d do it all again. I’ll love you till the end Even if, I’m left holding the bag I’ll still be here, Flying that tattered flag. [guitar solo] [verse 3] Now we’re tied down To faraway roads, countries, towns. Most days they couldn’t say It was supposed to be any Other way. Except you and I, If we both slow down, Can still hear the faintest sound. [pre-chorus] She holds the line She won’t compromise She says she don’t But she thinks about us All the time [chorus] Raise that tattered flag To them it’s Just a dirty old rag. My love up in the wind And written on my skin. You’ll always be my greatest sin I’d do it all again. I’ll love you till the end Even if, I’m left holding the bag I’m still here! Flying that tattered flag. [conclusion] I’ll love you till the end holding the bag I’m still here, Flying that tattered flag.
