Black Flag

A year in the hole had taken its toll when I took a good look at me

And what a surprise the scope of my eyes could only see black

And I remember someone who was taking them two by two

And lately I'd become the one who'd have laughed at you too

There was a black flag on my morning

There was a black flag on my day

There was a black flag on everything around

And I was walking backwards again

Black flag, black flag

I walked in the day, my usual way looking through a two by four

It colored my view, I couldn't see you or maybe I just wouldn't

And I remember the time when the sunlight fell on my head

And lately I'd become a member of the walking dead

There was a black flag on my morning

There was a black flag on my day

There was a black flag on everything around

And I was walking backwards again

Black flag, black flag

And I know that I was wrong it was up to me

If I wanted to see

And I remember the day when I saw the mask on my face

And I knew that it was time to put the thing in its place

I'd put the black flag on my morning

I'd put the black flag on my day

I'd put the black flag on everything around

And I was walking backwards again

Black flag on my morning

Black flag on my day

I'd put the black flag on everything around

And I was walking backwards again

Black flag on my morning

Black flag on my day

I'd put the black flag on everything around

And I was walking backwards again, it was up to me

And I know that I was wrong
