take one car – white flag lyrics
white flag, it was a good run while it lasted
the soft earth that caught me so many times before, hit me like a cement wall, broke every bone of hope in my body, the truth revealed itself to me like the captain of a sinking ship
though vultures circle over me, though wolves nipped at my feet, i was too blind to see, too deaf to hear the funeral horns ringing in my ears, for years, i refused to see the procession trailing on my feet
it takes a strong man to keep on fighting, & a smarter one to admit his defeats, but i was neither of these. too stubborn to fold, knew not of a retreat, when i led my horses to water, i drowned everyone that wouldn’t drink
what if everything you thought was gold turned to bronze beneath your feet? my every foundation built on crumbling sand. turns out eden was a dry and deserted land, and that beauty in the distance, a plundering harlot who robbed me blind when i reached her thieving hands
so, go on and tell me that you told me so. who needs another’s wisdom when you’ve got so much of your own? it’s like comparing a bee sting to a knife in your chest. just keep a smile on the outside while i’m burning up within
and i’ll just carry on like the oblivious do
in the bliss of sweet ignorance, i’ll carry on
