Defenseless
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I just can't face myself alone, alone, alone
I opened the window to let the breeze know
I need to feel at home
But it happened again, her dress, it slid
Down until it kissed the floorboards again
Now she's motionless and naked,
I glimpsed the edge but couldn't take it.
I feel so defenseless, don't think that I wouldn't
No I never meant this, I swear I can mend it
I've got a little bit of courage and a head full
Of smoke, let's see how far I can take this,
I've got to focus now on everything what
Matters the most, let's see how long till I break it
Gain perspective, stand on edges,
(Same mistakes I'll never make)
Gain perspective, stand on edges,
Same mistakes I'll never make again
I found the man I thought I was,
Learned inside a cheap hotel, a borrowed buzz
Couldn't bring myself to feel that rush
Stomach spilled, I still got my guts.
You brought me in with confidence,
Assuming I would cave to hips, and kiss your lips,
My father told me, honest men, can lie again,
And nothings broken you can't fix
I feel so defenseless, don't think that I wouldn't
No I never meant this, I swear I can mend it
I've got a little bit of courage and a head full
Of smoke, let's see how far I can take this,
I've got to focus now on everything what
Matters the most, let's see how long till I break it,
Gain perspective, stand on edges,
(Same mistakes I'll never make)
Gain perspective, stand on edges,
Same mistakes I'll never make again
I fell asleep on the floor again, what did you expect?
Just a point the pin and a mess inside his head
I fell asleep on the floor again, what did you expect?
Just a point the pin and a mess inside his head
Mess inside his head
Well I'm so defenseless, don't think that I wouldn't,
No I never meant this, I swear I can mend this
I've got a little bit of courage and a head full
Of smoke, let's see how far I can take this,
I've got to focus now on everything what
Matters the most, let's see how long till I break it
Gain perspective, you're not true til tested (I'm tested)
Gain perspective, stand on edges.
Same mistakes I'll never make,
Same mistakes I'll never make again
