Maybe it's bricks and mortar now, whether or not they run it down
I don't want anything to shake that shape away
No one told us which way to come, nobody mapped oblivion
So I go growing roses in disarrayJust like most, falling head in
'Til my ghost fills the bed in
So lift it up like a banner
Hold it up over me
If this war is never ending
I'll take this love down with me
Like a bannerI don't need fate to give it time, it doesn't toke pain to change your
Mind no weapon con sever the soul from me not the sorceress, not the money
All my cleverness, all my cunning so lift up like a banner
Hold it up over me if this war is never endingI'll take this love down with me
Like a banner
It's around me in my surroundings
It counts me when it starts the counting
In the chaos there is a standard
I'm carrying it like a banner
