Lyrics
This is not a white flag.
This is the shear wall you forgot we built.
[Verse 1]
The Kresge render from '08 is on my screen.
Your name's still on the file, pixel-sharp and mean.
The low hum from the plotter smells like a coming storm.
I'm calling 'cause I saw your face on a Corktown uniform.
[Chorus]
This is not a white flag.
This is the shear wall you forgot we built.
[Verse 2]

[Bridge]

I was just mapping the stress points to see if you could take the strain.
[Chorus]
This is not a white flag.
This is the shear wall you forgot we built.
[Outro]
Call me when you're done demolishing yourself.
