White Flag
Jenn Blosil Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me is this right
I can't sleep at all
I can't sleep at all

Tell me is this real
I'm afraid to fall
I'm afraid to fall
Usually I'd wait for you
Now I'm not sure if I will
I am not the same before you met me

Now I'm thinking maybe I
Feel this way cause I will find somebody
To love me

Guess I got to let go
Leavin' here without a fight
I'm not gonna look back
And wish I was by your side

Guess I got to let go
Gonna do for me what's right
I'm not gonna look back
I'm giving you my word

Then tell me where to turn
I can't seem to breathe
I can't seem to breathe
Tell me where do I run
It's taking over me
Over me

Usually I'd wait for you
Now I'm not sure if I will
I am not the same before you met me

Now I'm thinking maybe I
Feel this way cause I will find somebody
To love me

Guess I got to let go
Leavin' here without a fight
I'm not gonna look back
And wish I was by your side

Guess I got to let go
Gonna do for me what's right
I'm not gonna look back
No

I won't let the words you say
Bring me down, bring me down, bring me down
I won't let the words you say
Bring me down, bring me down, bring me down
I won't let the words you say
Bring me down, bring me down, bring me down
I won't let the words you say
Bring me down, bring me down, bring me down

No, no
No, no no

Guess I got to let go
Leavin' here without a fight
I'm not gonna look back
And wish I was by your side
Guess I got to let go
Gonna do for me what's right
I'm not gonna look back
Giving you my white flag
(Guess I got to let go)
Giving you my white flag
(Guess I got to let go)
Giving you my white flag




(Guess I got to let go)
Giving you my white flag

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of the song suggest that the singer is struggling to sleep and questioning the relationship's validity.


The singer appears to be afraid of falling, which could be interpreted as being afraid of getting hurt emotionally from the relationship. Although she usually waits for her partner, she is now not sure if she will. The lines "I am not the same before you met me/Now I'm thinking maybe I/Feel this way cause I will find somebody/To love me" suggest that the singer has grown in confidence and is becoming more self-assured.


The chorus reveals the singer's decision: "Guess I got to let go/Leavin' here without a fight/I'm not gonna look back/And wish I was by your side/Guess I got to let go/Gonna do for me what's right/I'm not gonna look back/Giving you my white flag." The singer has decided to move on, do what is best for herself, and let go of the relationship without a fight. Overall, the song appears to be about self-discovery, growth, and moving on from a relationship that is no longer serving the singer's needs.
