ManchesterChorus: As the rain falls in Manchester A woman cries/ A man gestures He looked her in the eyes/ Her knees just folded She dropped the flag/ she couldn’t hold it Time stands still as the man still stands As the tears run down from her head in her handsManchester
The Rest: Have you ever wondered who folds the flag? Wheres the body? Who got the tags? Pick up the tab? More like a stab in the back of a dad of two (now dead) A mother who knew theyd never see their son again Do you say “Goodbye” for real and constantly scream in the back of your mind
Down At The Courthousedown at the courthouse where they try us for being pious pirates “looting the youth” only truth was told because we didn’t start the fire but they shot smiles like liars snapped/ piled the files away securely like a hammer or pliers purely rusting in the water after a fire aspire to be higher and youll only fall as the town crier ya okay…I guess you can walk this way but tell me; can you really talk this way? you expect us to pay for your stupid mistakesDown At The Courthouse
while you wade in the fray or sit there and pray and wait for the day they say you can stay
Can't wait 'till you start uploading your stuff, man.
