because my life is rock bottom
my friends are disappearing,
or rather I'm finding the real ones.
And yet I smile and wave around my flag of survival;
The striped one on my wrists.
If you're reading this,
If you understand,
I hope that you find
whatever it is you're looking for
for you to make it past this bridge
onto the lands of your kingdom
here's to your survival,
here's to your striped flag,
be it torn, burned, thin, thick,
black, white, yellow, or any color.
be it round or square, be it physical or mental.
raise it up babes
you are p-e-r-f-e-c-t
