Raise Your Red Flags

Ego Likeness

so many assassins,
but which one is yours?
mind your intuition
but i've said this before
i've adorned my skin with symbols and wings
and other helpful things
and the blood that i shed
was a warning in red
to remind me, to remind me...

burn your white flags, refuse to surrender
then raise your red flags to remember
to remember

hammers on nerve
fingers on bone
and though i have shed my skin
i can't tell if i've grown

burn your white flags, refuse to surrender
then raise your red flags to remember
to remember

i have poisoned myself for the last time,
for the last time
for the last time
