The Long Defeat

 

The Long Defeat

(album: Tell Me What You Know - 2007)


I have joined the long defeat
That falling set in motion
And all my strength and energy
Are raindrops in the ocean

So conditioned for the win
To share in victor's stories
But in the place of ambition's din
I have heard of other glories

And I pray for an idea
And a way I cannot see
It's too heavy to carry
And impossible to leave

I can't just fight when I think I'll win
That's the end of all belief
And nothing has provoked it more
Than a possible defeat

[Chorus]

We walk a while we sit and rest
We lay it on the altar
I won't pretend to know what's next
But what I have I've offered

And I pray for a vision
And a way I cannot see
It's too heavy to carry
And impossible to leave

And I pray for inspiration
And a way I cannot see
It's too heavy to carry
And impossible to leave
It's too heavy to carry
And I will never leave

done
