Defeated
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.
Live your own life, just be yourself
Don't live a lie, for no one else
Don't live to work, work to live
Give things a go, you might not forgive
Be true to yourself, don't let you down
Take a chance, when they're around
oh, oh
You might never reach it, but don't be defeated [x3]
Life's a Bitch, then you die
That's not a way, that's not a life
When you feel down, bring yourself back
Pressure on you, don't show the cracks
Enjoy your life, it only comes once
Love your friends, stuff the cunts
oh, oh
You might never reach it, but don't be defeated [x3]
I've had enough of the constant rejection
Every-time you make a selection
Why oh why can't it be me [x2]
I've had enough of the constant failure
Every-time I make a go if it
Why oh why can't it be me [x2]
I've had enough of feeling down
whenever good times come around
why oh why don't I shut up [x2]
Don't be defeated [x6]
