RED FLAG ➴ BILLY TALENT

cast off the crutch that kills the pain, the red flag waving never meant the same. the kids of tomorrow don't need today when they live in the sins of yesterday. well i've never seen us act like this, our only hope is the minds of kids, and they'll show us a thing or two. our only weapons are the guns of youth, it's only time before they tighten the noose, and then the hunt will be on for you. we don't need them. cast off the crutch that kills the pain, the red flag waving never meant the same, the kids of tomorrow don't need today when they live in the sins of yesterday. like a smallest bee packs a sting, like a pawn checkmates a king, we'll attack at the crack of dawn. build a ladder if there's a wall, don't be afraid to slip and fall, speak for yourself or they'll speak for you. like a fire don't need water, like a jury needs a liar, like a riot don't need order, like a mad man needs a martyr. we don't need them. cast off the crutch that kills the pain, the red flag waving never meant the same, the kids of tomorrow don't need today when they live in the sins of yesterday.

AT THE BOTTOM ➴ BRAND NEW

wait, i watched you throw out your bouquet, now i think about you everyday. i'm alone now in my bed. and there's a lake, and at the bottom you'll find all our friends; they don't swim cause they're all dead. we never are what we intend, or invent. 'cause i make little lies and then i pull them apart, think something dark's living down in my heart. and if i wanted to die before i got old i should've started some years ago digging that hole, well i carry this box to the proper place and when i lower it down i let it fade away. i hope that you would do this for me. i'd serve you drugs on a silver plate if i thought it would help you get away, i hope that you would do this for me. a deer that a hunter shot in the heart, some dogs that got hit by cars. all came to spill their guts. and we spoke about the father, son, and holy ghost, and which psalms we had loved the most, and then we all turned to dirt and dust. some men die under the mountain just looking for gold, some die looking for a hand to hold. i'm slowly bringing you down from the heavenly gates, now i'm drowning in the flood i made. well explain myself to me on the other side, i'll watch from heaven when i die. i carry this box to the proper place and when i lower it down, i let you fade away. i hope that you would do this for me. i'd serve you drugs on a silver plate if i thought it would help you get away. i hope that you would do this for me.
