Black Tiles Lyrics - Wild Flag - Wild Flag

Watch the way they wait in line 

Play this game with me in time 

I see the way you look at me 

Your eyes filled with cruelty 

You don't have to confess 

To sleeping in the lion's den 

There is no end, no beginning 

Are you my friend? 

Black tiles in a line 

Watch them fall serpentine 

I see the snake in your eyes 

Are you set to tell me lies? 

Don't try to fight it, 'cause you won't, you won't 

Let it go, it's not wrong 

All we can hope for is a light 

That shines on after we're gone 

For all we know we're just here 

For the length, the length of the song 

I hope I know when it's done 

When it's gone 

No one knows what happens next 

There's no answer and no guess 

Don't look at me, I'm doing fine 

I'm just not your kind 

Look away, don't move too fast 

Fall forward, jump back 

There is no end, no beginning 

The warrior is not a foe and not a friend 

Don't try to fight it, 'cause you won't, you won't 

Let go, it's not wrong 

All we can hope for is a light 

That shines on after we're gone 

For all we know we're just here 

For the length, the length of the song 

I never know when it's done 

When it's gone
