I'm convinced these are my best yet. feedback is always appreciated.

Wide grin with a white flag
On a pale horse's back
White flag pyre shaman dance
One more time a second chance
Nine more lives, the shaman's chant
Night only comes
When our sun is starved

Colour in my Tao blank
Cackling as I wave my flag
I'm a nine live Cheshire-grinning cat
Never landing on my back

White flag Alexander's charge
His cavalry off the mountaintops
A split second shock surrender
For a split second forever after
White and gold marl-boric martyrs
Drag queens dressed in shining armour

Colour in my Tao blank
Cackling as I wave the flag

Colour in my Tao blank
Cackling as I wave the flag

White flag on my early grave
Ashes to dust to masquerade
Faith with fate was my mistake
My relent has paved her way
talk to me about annie clark :3

Hello jake,
               i'm not saying your other lyrics aren't songs as i'm sure they
are to you but i'm definitely getting a tune in my head with this one,i'm
not sure if it's the same tune you've got in your head but it's a tune all
the same.
"One more time a second chance
nine more lives,the shaman's chant"

"I'm a nine live Cheshire-grinning cat
never landing on my back"

"A split second shock surrender
for a split second forever after"

Iv'e picked out a few of your more tame lines there,
you're bizarre man but in a very good way.
I hope you get the feedback you deserve but i think
some members may be a bit daunted by the eccentricity
that's coming out of your head,good luck,
                                                         tom.
