Defend You
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'll write it down
Where you can see
I have gone to sleep
Try to relate
Can't give in to your temptations
All your hopes and dreams, I'll take away
Its time that I forget everything
you've taught me
When I looked up to you
Fall to your knees
And Give up your aspirations
Fall in to your knees
So how can you expect
me to just close my eyes
And forget your mistakes
Defending you is getting
harder everyday, day
I'm breaking down
Behind this fear
If I don't go to my addiction
Make it through yourself
All your hopes and dreams, I'll take away
Its time that I forget everything
you've taught me
When I looked up to you
So how can you expect
me to just close my eyes
And forget your mistakes
Defending you is getting
hard everyday, day
I look inside myself for strength
Like a million times before
You'll never let it in because
I know you said
I know you said
I know, I know, I know, I know
Fall, I'll show you where this goes
How can you live this way
I'll never forget
Where I come from, Where I've been
I'll never forget you
So how can you expect
me to just close my eyes
And forget your mistakes
Defending you is getting
harder everyday, day
So how can you expect
me to just close my eyes
And forget your mistakes
Defending you is getting
harder everyday, day
You've lost it all
