Flags On Judgement Day

Did you know what you were waiting for
And that life was as easy as just waking and breathing
Did you know you had to choose a side
And think that love was forever with a million romances

Did you know what you were searching for
Lost in frozen moments and an album to review it
Did you know you had to look inside
And think time was forever and you make your own chances

You’re never gonna lock on your target
Staring down the wishing well
Striking gold in a turbulent market
It’s just pie in the sky

Won’t you raise your flags on high, ’til judgement day
Won’t you fly your ship on by Enola Gay

Did you know what you were asking for
Suspending time and the wrinkles left to prove it
Did you think you’d maybe purge your fears
And come crashing and burning
Did you break your own dances

You’re never gonna lock on your target
Staring down the wishing well
Striking gold in a turbulent market
It’s just pie in the sky

Won’t you raise your flags on high, ’til judgement day
Won't you fly your ship on by Enola Gay
Won’t you raise your banners high, ’til judgement day
Won’t you fly your ship on by Enola Gay

Did you know what you were hoping for
Dodging more than the bullets and a memoir that soothes it
Did you think you had to change your mind
And that sanity loves you in the void of your trances

Did you know what you were crying for
Shadows of lovers burnt along the world’s highways
Did you think that this would turn the tide
And that malice and purpose would defeat and enhance it

You’re never gonna lock on your target
Staring down the wishing well
Striking gold in a turbulent market
It’s just pie in the sky

Won’t you raise your flags on high, ’til judgement day
Won’t you fly your ship on by Enola Gay
Won’t you raise your banners high, ’til judgement day
Won’t you fly your ship on by Enola Gay
Won’t you raise your flags on high, ’til judgement day
Won’t you fly your ship on by Enola Gay
Won’t you raise your banners high, ’til judgement day
Won’t you fly your ship on by Enola Gay
