Forever Half Mast

I'm taking back roads, all the way back home
 Everything I've known, just a little overgrown
 I didn't choose this town, I can't undo it now
 I tried to love the beast, no matter what it thinks of me
 You're worried that you'll go to hell
 For all the lives that you can't save
 For all the money that you waste
 For all the good you threw away
 Yes you're evil but you're not that bad
 You put out your palm more than the back of your hand
 They were wrong when they said, "Forget the past"
 Let your flag fly at forever half mast
 Let your flag fly at forever half mast
 ♪
 We're in a state of disarray, united by our darkest days
 Achin' from the growing pains
 They always say it's just a phase
 America the tried and true
 Red and white and black and blue
 Tell me who did this to you?
 If it was me, I hardly knew
 Yes you're evil but you're not that bad
 You put out your palm more than the back of your hand
 They were wrong when they said, "Forget the past"
 Let your flag fly at forever half mast
 Let your flag fly at forever half mast

 All for one and one for all

 Nobody escaped the fall

 Wait for something magical

 Mistake turned into miracle
