White Flag Lyrics

It's a long road for an old soul

Battling with their own mind

I don't know when I'll go

How do they know it's before my time?

I'm living on the edge between bad and worse

Wondering who would find my body first

Hiding by the wall, tired of it all

Feeling sick and feeling small

Wondering when this pain will end

And I can be myself again

They assume if I'm breathing it can't be that bad

They choose to ignore the only signs they ever had

It's cold out and right now

I don't know how much more I can tolerate

They say it should be easy

But every little thing is killing me

I'm living on the edge between bad and worse

Wondering who would find my body first

Hiding by the wall, tired of it all

Feeling sick and feeling small

Wondering when this pain will end

And I can be myself again

They assume if I'm breathing it can't be that bad

They choose to ignore the only signs they ever had

Just pick up the pieces, it's not broken just bleeding

Is it real or is it art, this mosaic of my heart?

It's been so many years since I dipped my toes over the edge

Clenching a bloody fist, praying for the end

I stood there, white flag in hand

They chose to ignore the only signs they ever had
