Flogging Molly What's Left of the Flag Lyrics:
His eyes, they closed
and his last breath spoke
he had seen all to be seen
a life once full
now an empty vase
wilt the blossoms
on his early grave

walk away me boy
walk away me boy
and my morning we'll be free
wipe that golden tear
from your mother dear
and raise what's left
of the flag for me
then the rosary beads
count them, 1 2 3
fell apart as they hit the floor
in a garb of black
we must pay respect
to the color we're
born to mourn
walk away me boys
walk away me boys
and my morning we'll be free
wipe that golden tear
from your mother dear
raise what's left
of the flag for me

In it's place they grew
an angry festered wound
full of hatered and remourse
where I pick and scratch
'till the blood, it matched,
the silent rage that
now fills my lungs
for there are many ways
[ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/evN ]
to kill a man they say
with bayonet, axe or sword
but son a bullet fired
from a shapeless guise
just put the shell of
a Thompson gun

walk away me boys
walk away me boys
and my morning we'll be free
wipe that golden tear
from your mother dear
and raise what's left
of the flag for me

from the east out to
the western shore
where many men and
many more will fall
but no angel flies with me tonight
though freedom reigns on all
and curse the name for which
we slaved our days
so every men chose Kingdom Come

But sure as night turns day
it's the Passion Play,
oh my god
what have they done
with madmen rage
well the dogged and craze
but the dead rise again you fools

walk away me boy
walk away me boys
and my morning we'll be free
wipe that golden tear
from your mother dear
and raise what's left
of the flag for me

walk away me boy
walk away me boys
and my morning we'll be free
wipe that golden tear
from your mother dear
and raise what's left
of the flag for me
