Defeat Me

As moments slowly drift away

And time groans in anger

I sent a letter to today

But recieved no answer

My mind runs frantically through gray fields

Seeking refuge from thought

Yet when the day is done it yields

With desire to be caught

Aaaaaaaahhhhhh Defeat Me

I watch the darkness creeping in

Bearing absolution

"Forgive the day for all its sins

enter night's illusions"

Yet daytime struggles once more to stay

And relief flees the fight

And through the dark it makes its way

To Allow a new light

Aaaaaaaahhhhhh Defeat Me

And when the day is gone

And time has played its final tune

I let my memories defeat me

I let my head recline

My mind will gradually resign

And there I stand

At Last Defeated
