"If only" not about suicide

[metalanus]

If Only

I won my battle
just to die in your war
and its so unfair
theres no victory song
no armistice day
of which in peace to stand
side by side
free of the rage
that was a mystery inside

just a folded flag
to place on my grave
keep it close by
let it fly someday

closed the casket
I dont know why
closed the casket
goodbye

Did I stand
between the lines
Got shot up
from both sides
didnt want to see
tears in your eyes
as you watched me
roll in the dirt
holding the wound
you have given me

just a flesh wound
a trip to the grave
bleeding of red
a bitter end

closed the casket
I dont know why
closed the casket
goodbye

I know ill see you
in due time
with all eternity
we'll find the time
until then
"If Only"


this is about rejecton from a girl. I used such symballism because for me what i had going with the girl took alot out of me given my social anxiety disorder and shyness a huge persoanl battle won . She has some things going on in her life (her war) that may have caused the death of it and those things would be shyness and anxiety as well as other things. im not sure what the flag and flesh wound parts have to do with anything I guess the flag is symballic of the experiences i have given to her and the memories.

I bet you thought it was about suicide. its not.

I want to put it in my daily blog but there is a chance the girl that inspired it could read it and wouldnt want her to feel she has made me depressed or suicidal. I am neither and think this is for the best while being dissapointing but there are other things that have opened up prior to her rejecting me.
