Shoulder Song

Beneath the energetic rhythms and quirky instrumentation lies a heartbreaking story of war and separation. "Two White Flag" juxtaposes an upbeat, syncopated musical arrangement with the tragedy of a world on fire. It asks the question "What are we fighting for?" while the clean, layered vocals deliver a plea for peace from the perspective of those caught in the crossfire.

[Verse]

World's on fire
Little boy's on the road
Mother's at the border
Arms are empty and cold
Begging the guards to let him go

[Chorus]

Two white flags on the floor
One for my mother
One for my father
What are we fighting for?

[Verse 2]

Brother's on the battlefield
Fighting a war
For his family
So he can put food on the floor
So his son won't die anymore

[Chorus]

Two white flags on the floor
One for my brother
One for his lover
What are we fighting for?
Two white flags on the floor
One for my brother
One for his lover
What are we fighting for?

[Outro]

World's on fire
Little boy's on the road
Mother's at the border
Arms are empty and cold
Begging the guards to let him go
