White Flag
Surrendered Echoes: Unveiling the Emotion Behind Rose Cousins' 'White Flag'
Lyrics
Take my ears, I won't use them
Willfully relinquishing my ability to listen or pay attention.
They no longer hear the music
I'm unable to perceive or enjoy music anymore.
Just silence and walls
Feeling surrounded by silence and barriers.
No footsteps in the halls
No sign of activity or presence around.
Take my hands, they are grieving
My hands are mourning or experiencing deep sorrow.
Nothing to hold on to or believe in
There's nothing to grasp onto or have faith in.
No loving embrace
No affectionate or caring hug.
Just big empty space
A vast, vacant emptiness.
I belong
Expressing a sense of connection or attachment.
I belong to you
Feeling dedicated or committed to someone.
Take my heart, it's beaten
My heart is battered and exhausted.
It fought hard and was defeated
It fought bravely but was overcome by circumstances.
I didn't give up
I didn’t surrender, but the effort wasn’t sufficient.
It just wasn't enough
It lacked the strength or capability to prevail.
I belong
Reiterating a sense of connection or attachment.
I belong to you
Feeling dedicated or committed to someone (repeated).
I belong
Repeated expression of a sense of belonging.
I belong
-I belong to you
Reiterating a feeling of dedication or commitment to someone.
