"Our Flag Is For The Fallen"

WRITTEN BY: Justin Kane, Wynne Adams & Eric Durrance

​

I POINTED TO THAT FLAG, HIGH UP THERE ON THE MANTEL

RIGHT NEXT TO THAT PICTURE OF MY GRANDPA AND THOSE MEDALS

THEY GAVE TO HIM WHEN HE CAME BACK FIGHTIN' THAT WAR OVERSEAS

​

HE SAID COME ON OVER HERE NOW, LET ME TELL YOU A STORY

ABOUT THOSE WHO FOUGHT WITH HONOR FOR THIS FLAG WE CALL OLD GLORY

I COULD SEE THE PRIDE IN HIS EYES, AS HE SAID THESE WORDS TO ME

​

THAT FLAG STANDS FOR FREEDOM, COURAGE, FAITH AND HOPE

ONE NATION UNDER GOD, ANOTHER SOLDIER COMING HOME

HEAVEN'S FULL OF HEROES, CAUSE FREEDOM  DON'T COME FREE

HE LAID HIS DOG TAGS IN MY HAND

IN THAT MOMENT I BEGAN TO UNDERSTAND

OUR FLAG IS FOR THE FALLEN

OUR FLAG IS FOR THE FALLEN

​

HE SAID EVERY TIME YOU HEAR THOSE SIRENS SCREAMIN' THROUGH THE NIGHT

THERE'S ANOTHER ANGEL ON THE WAY, TO SAVE ANOTHER LIFE

SO I CLOSE MY EYES, SAY A PRAYER

AND PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THOSE STARS AND STRIPES

​

THAT FLAG STANDS FOR FREEDOM, COURAGE, FAITH AND HOPE

ONE NATION UNDER GOD, ANOTHER SOLDIER COMING HOME

HEAVEN'S FULL OF HEROES, CAUSE FREEDOM  DON'T COME FREE

THERE'S THOSE WHO RUN OUT AND WHO RUN IN

IN THAT CROSS ON THE HILL WE UNDERSTAND

OUR FLAG IS FOR THE FALLEN

OUR FLAG IS FOR THE FALLEN

​

EVERY TIME YOU SEE THOSE COLORS FLYIN' IN THE WIND

REMEMBER THOSE WHO GAVE IT ALL, SO WE COULD LIVE AGAIN...

​

THAT FLAG STANDS FOR FREEDOM, COURAGE, FAITH AND HOPE

ONE NATION UNDER GOD, ANOTHER SOLDIER COMING HOME

HEAVEN'S FULL OF HEROES, CAUSE FREEDOM  DON'T COME FREE

I'M PROUD OF WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE'VE BEEN

EVERY TIME THEY SING THAT ANTHEM AGAIN

YOU CAN TAKE A KNEE... BUT ME I'M GONNA STAND.....

OUR FLAG IS FOR THE FALLEN

OUR FLAG IS FOR THE FALLEN

OUR FLAG IS FOR THE FALLEN
