When I took a good look at me
And what a surprise the scope of my eyes
Could only see black

And I remember someone who was taking them two by two
And lately I'd become the one who'd have laughed at you too

There was a black flag on my morning
There was a black flag on my day
There was a black flag on everything around
And I was walkin' backwards again
Black flag, black flag

I walked in the day, my usual way
Lookin' through a two by four
It colored my view, I couldn't see you
Or maybe I just wouldn't

And I remember the time when the sunlight fell on my head
And lately I'd become a member of the walkin' dead

There was a black flag on my morning
There was a black flag on my day
There was a black flag on everything around
And I was walkin' backwards again

(Ah ah ah)
And I know that I was wrong
It was up to me
(Ah ah ah)
If I wanted to see

And I remember the day when I saw the mask on my face
And I knew that it was time to put the thing in it's place

I'd put the black flag on my morning
I'd put the black flag on my day
I'd put the black flag on everything around
And I was walkin' backwards again

Black flag on my morning
Black flag on my day
(Black flag)
I'd put the black flag on everything around
And I was walkin' backwards again

Black flag on my morning
Black flag on my day
(Black flag)
I'd put the black flag on everything around
And I was walkin' backwards again
(Ah ah)

It's was up to me
(Ah ah)
And I know that I wasn't wrong

When I took a good look at me
And what a surprise the scope of my eyes
