White Flag lyrics:
Intro
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh
Verse
Gunfire straight through the heart
Bang shot, I pulled the trigger
Didn't know the gun would go off
It happened in a flicker
Wish I could take it back
Take it back, take it back in a flash
It was a daft attack
Pre-chorus
I raise my white flag
Chorus
I'm sorry for hurting you with my words
For waging a war I should have held you close
I see you work hard, you sacrifice for us
I'm with you, I'm for you
Your ally, I don't want to fight you
Hook
Oh-no oh-oh oh-oh
I don't want to fight
Oh-no oh-oh oh-oh
I don't want to fight
Verse
Black smoke dancing in the sky
Oh my, breathe, wait for it to clear
Come back with a treaty in my hand
Lay my arms surrender
Wish I could take it back
Take it back, take it back in a flash
It was a daft attack
Pre-chorus
I raise my white flag
Chorus
I'm sorry for hurting you with my words
For waging a war I should have held you close
I see you work hard, you sacrifice for us
I'm with you, I'm for you, your ally
I don't want to fight you
Hook
Oh-no oh-oh oh-oh
I don't want to fight
Oh-no oh-oh oh-oh
I don't want to fight
Bridge
Bloodshed and pain
Is never worth the last word
Unite in harmony
Deafen the discord
Let's make amends
To give us a fighting chance
This white flag
Waves to bring us back
Chorus
I'm sorry for hurting you with my words
For waging a war I should have held you close
I see you work hard, you sacrifice for us
I'm with you, I'm for you, your ally
Chorus
I'm sorry for hurting you with my words
For waging a war, here is my flag
I need you, I want you, I'll sacrifice for us too
I'm with you, I'm for you, your ally
I don't want to fight you
Hook
Oh-no oh-oh oh-oh
I don't want to fight
Oh-no oh-oh oh-oh
I don't want to fight
