Banner

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 the disarray
 Just 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 banner)
 (Like a banner)
 I don't need fate to give it time
 It doesn't take pain to change your mind
 No weapon can sever the soul from me
 Not the sorceress
 Not the money
 All my cleverness
 All my cunning
 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 banner)
 (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
 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
 So, lift it up, like a banner (like a banner)
 Hold it up over me (over me)
 If this war (if this war)
 Is never ending (is never ending)
 I'll take this love (I'll take this love)
 Down with me (like a banner)
 Like a banner (like a banner)
 Hold it up (like a banner)
 Over me (like a banner)
 If this war (like a banner)
 Is never ending (like a banner)
 I'll take this love (like a banner)
 Down with me
