Alissa Musto Black Flak Lyrics


Black Flak by Alissa Musto

Oh it's a different world out there they all say
Tell me what's so different
I've seen how this one plays
Time repeats, clash, defeat, sit around and pray for better days
Til they come

Oh it's a different world out there from fairy tales
History books and rock and roll they write to cover the details
Highlight in Hollywood
But never tell what the future entails
So when it fails
It's not the first time

So I wake up at night, sick fantasies of war
I'm just curled up in my bed, my own b24
These battles with myself
Stop and give me pause
Rebellion is romantic when you're fighting for a cause

CHORUS:
Black flak and nightmare fighters,
Jazz cats and beat writers,
Make these words count
They could be your last
Say a prayer and you'll be fine
It always works until the last time
I don't see the stars in the sky
I see black flak and nightmare fighters

They dance around battle like it's some distant threat
To a song where everyone knows the words but everyone claims that they forget
Can't they see I'm fighting a revolution in my head
Tell me this time it's gonna be a different world
Well hasn't that been said

CHORUS

We're a generation caught up in tricks of God and war and politics
I don't want to be part of it
I want black flak

And I guess it's more of a suicide because we're killing ourselves and we don't even mind
I'd rather die with a little pride
In black flak
Like nightmare fighters
