Down by Law - Fly The Flag lyrics

pulverized

cast aside

but i survived

now fly the flag

criticized

opened wide

left to die

now fly the flag

brutalized

cut down to size

but i'll survive

now fly the flag

deified

mystified

crucified

now fly the flag

justified

penalized

but i survived

now fly the flag

learned to fight

two black eyes

but i'll survive

now fly the flag

all the things i thought i'd never be

now it looks like they're all happening to me

battlewise

streetwise

lies and lies

now fly the flag

lonely eyes

on my own tonight

but i'll survive

now fly the flag

hypnotize

petrified

but i'll survive

now fly the flag

glorified

victimized

but i'll survive

now fly the flag

all these things i thought i'd never be

and it looks like they're all happening to me

this one's for every lonely heart

when they've got you beat before you start

when it seems you're all alone

you've got nowhere to go

beaten down again

don't let the bastards get you down

get up tonight

stand up tonight

just don't let them keep you down

and fly

just fly

now fly the flag
