Draped In Flags (Last Gasp IV) Lyrics

So you didn't wake up my love
You never saw me ever again
Do you even regret it one bit
As we drive over the rude grit?
Caught up in your own little world
And cradled gently by slow rocking
Lost among a sea of headlines
That we had to rip apart to find

I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
The breeze was hideous on the day my heart skipped

The ride here was cold and lonely
For every battered one with soul
A veil was lowered, amongst others
This isn't really the place for lovers
So keep quiet, still, in the dark
For gods sake don't show me your face
And as that lifeless daffodil left my hand
I still couldn't begin to understand

I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
The breeze was hideous as the flower slipped
I wish I could have made the trip
I wish I could have made the trip
Who will carry me there now?
Who will carry me up now?

So you didn't wake up my love
You never saw me ever again
Do you even regret it one bit
As we drive over the rude grit?
Caught up in your own little world
And cradled gently by slow rocking
Lost among a sea of headlines
That we had to rip apart to find

I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
The breeze was hideous on the day my heart skipped

The ride here was cold and lonely
For every battered one with soul
A veil was lowered, amongst others
This isn't really the place for lovers
So keep quiet, still, in the dark
For gods sake don't show me your face
And as that lifeless daffodil left my hand
I still couldn't begin to understand

I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
I really didn't want to make that trip
The breeze was hideous as the flower slipped
I wish I could have made the trip
I wish I could have made the trip
Who will carry me there now?
Who will carry me up now?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
