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
Down with me
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
Down with me
It's around me in my surroundings
It's counts me when it starts the counting
In the chaos, there is a standard
I'm carrying it
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
Hold it up
Over me
If this war
Is never ending
I'll take this love
Down with me
