My Defeat
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.
My defeat is starting to show
My head hangs low
My defeat is starting to show
My head hangs low
My defeat is starting to show
My head hangs low
Your deceit is starting to show
Where can I go?
I'm so lonely
Every dirty lie will eat you alive
And be the ruin of me
(You'll be the ruin of me)
Every dirty lie you carry inside
Will be the ruin of me
(You'll be the ruin of me)
I've tried to make you whole
I nearly lost my soul
I've gotta let you go
God knows I've tried
Every single time you're holding back a lie
Is killing me inside
And I can't go on
And I feel so lonely
I feel so lonely
My defeat is starting to show
My head hangs low
My defeat is starting to show
My head hangs low
Every dirty lie will eat you alive
And be the ruin of me
(You'll be the ruin of me)
Every dirty lie you carry inside
Will be the ruin of you
(You'll be the ruin of you
And I just feel so lonely
I just feel so alone
And I just feel so lonely
I just feel so alone
I just feel so alone
You'll be the ruin of me
You'll be the ruin of me
