White Flag


Pink "Nobody Knows"

My many moods
My flights of fancy
Found it easy to hide
In the characters I play at work
In the darkness of night
Nobody realy knows me now
In my darkness, blind seeing
In the light, blind advice
Finding life in a rhythm
A rhthym I had to find on my own
Too quick to say, "Fuck-it"
A broken tooth from brother's bucket
Fearful of a touch, from sibling's touch
Gave my love, no such luck

So now I raise the white flag
Tired of this game of tag
No-one realy wins in hateful games
Water under the bridge
The Kids must learn to live
Mistakes again, come home to live
Cocaine and weed, no way to lead
Just walk away, run
If you must, to my home

A house re-divided
I raise the white flag
A place drug-free now
A place fight-free
For you, a neutral zone
Past demons and insurections
Packed away in the attic
A house re-divided
I raise the white flag

"Court ordered", "play nice
He-said, she-said
Tequila shots with the "guy"
My anger I let fly
Fly away, embrace the scene today
My many moods
My flights of fancy
Found it easy to hide
In the characters I play at work
In the darkness of night
Nobody realy knows me now
In my darkness, blind seeing
In the light, blind advice
Finding life in a rhythm
A rhthym I had to find on my own
But today, a rhythym, I've found
In letting go past bounds
LIVING life , dancing to the sounds
Call me crazy, call me queer
My bus departs on time
On time with mental fancy insanity
No delays, run to catch this life bus
A tour-director, experienced
In life's subtle detours
So count the heads
Of my beloved confused
I waved the white flag
Argue the point, amused
All aboard now, for a ride
Upon the life's journey , lost and confused
'Cause the wheels on this bus
Goes round - n - round
All players equal in the ride
To adventures upon the horizon, we ride
The setting sun, a drink to sleep
The rising sun an adventure to keep
Neither here nor there
A white flag I rose
And called upon those
Just get on the bus, adventures yet to come
Differences set aside, dinner comes
White flag raised, adventures yet to become
My many moods
My flights of fancy
What - the -fuck, come join me
In the bumpy ride - life's adventure spree!
