[00:-04.00]Brooke Fraser - Flags
[00:-00.50]
[00:00.04]Come, tell me your trouble
[00:10.63]I'm not your answer
[00:14.48]But I'm a listening ear
[00:19.19]
[00:22.55]Reality has left you reeling
[00:31.88]All facts and no feeling
[00:37.38]No faith and all fear
[00:41.29]
[00:44.98]I don't know why a good man will fall
[00:50.38]While a wicked one stands
[00:55.90]And our lives blow about
[00:59.27]Like flags on the land
[01:04.27]
[01:06.45]Who's at fault is not important
[01:15.05]Good intentions lie dormant
[01:21.29]And we're all to blame
[01:24.86]
[01:27.95]While apathy acts like an ally
[01:37.55]My enemy and I are one and the same
[01:46.74]
[01:50.48]I don't know why the innocents fall
[01:55.82]While the monsters still stand
[02:01.42]And our lives blow about
[02:04.78]Like flags on the land
[02:08.17]
[02:12.29]I don't know why our words are so proud
[02:17.65]Yet their promise soothing
[02:23.15]And our lives blow about
[02:26.55]Like flags in the wind
[02:29.97]
[02:55.81]Oh oh oh oh
[03:16.69]
[03:17.75]You who mourn will be comforted
[03:21.82]You who hunger will hunger no more
[03:28.63]All the last shall be first
[03:32.11]Of this I am sure
[03:37.45]
[03:39.61]You who weep now will laugh again
[03:43.60]All you lonely be lonely no more
[03:50.40]Yes, the last will be first
[03:53.85]Of this I'm sure
[04:01.11]
[04:01.72]I don't know why the innocents fall
[04:06.84]While the monsters stand
[04:12.22]I don't know why the little ones thirst
[04:17.07]But I know the last shall be first
[04:22.72]I know the last shall be first
[04:28.26]I know the last shall be first
[04:39.88]
