lyrics

Stripes and stars, the rockets’ red glare
Building walls between us
Purple hearts, the honor to wear
A sugar pill for the pain of trust

Banners wave in a spangled storm of verbal power plays
‘til war machines engage once more and the colors blend to gray

Flying colors a rainbow of hate
And all just a blur in a splintering mind
Are these words too little too late
To make this world color blind?
Black and white, the war rages on
Condition red on election day
Out of sight, the reason long gone
Now only pain remains

Man kills man for his father’s fears. His hate breeds prejudice
Children learning through their tears which friends can be their friends

Flying colors…

Walk with me at summer’s end
Way out here we’re the best of friends
Lonely roads offer room to care
We think the same thoughts, breathe the same air

Clashing colors make us turn again
The hate of the world between two friends
As age old tales tear us apart
And old wars rage

Hard to see through tearful eyes
Hard to feel with a broken heart
Hard to keep a solid mind
In a race that’s torn apart

Foreign shores and racial wars, a whirlwind in my head
The fire burns the rich and poor and the colors blend to red

Flying colors…
