White Flag Lyrics by Fates Warning

Theories of Flight

2016

[Verse 1]
You've looked through eyes
Under darkened skies
Your world was standing still
No one's going to take your soul away
It's all your own
But innocence was gone, it's gone

[Chorus]
No surrender, don't give up
Never carry that white flag
No surrender, now get up
Rise and bury your white flag
White flag

[Verse 2]
In the days that followed you
A new heart now is born
You'll never be alone

[Chorus]
No surrender, don't give up
Never carry that white flag
No surrender, now get up
Rise and bury your white flag

[Bridge]
And as days pass along
Know you've done no wrong
Few know sorrow as you did
You've made it, you've made it

[Bridge]
As life dims and fades away
Like shadows in vain
And when all light is gone
I'll be there, waiting

[Guitar Solos]
No surrender, don't give up
No surrender, now get up

[Verse 3]
The echoes there
Were more than most could bear
Yet no regrets at all
No one's going to take your soul away
It's all your own
But innocence was gone

[Chorus]
No surrender, don't give up
Never carry that white flag
No surrender, now get up
Rise and bury your white flag

[Chorus]
No surrender, don't give up
Never carry that white flag
No surrender, now get up
Rise and bury your white flag

[Outro]
Bury your white flag
