Lullaby for Defeat Lyrics by Erosian Exile

Slave to Freedom

2011

My mind is ten thousand miles away
From my feet
Somewhere between my heart and my legs
There's a cavern expanding
To make room for one more defeat
I once knew a boy who loved his guitar
He asked me to write him a song
So i ran with a rhyme and he breathed in time
And helplessly played along
I struggled to feel what inside him was real
So the light of his spirit could shine
I stripped his extremes to the corе of his dreams
But fear was all i could find
Crazy
The sun was too strong
I shoulda known
Hе was hiding in the darkness for too long
So i painted my skin and tried to blend in
Just to stay by his side
I slept every day and drank nights away
And ignored what was left of my pride
I gave him enough but never too much
Mastered the rules of the game
So he chased other women in front of my eyes
And complained we were too much the same
Crazy
For love to be wrong
I should've known
I was stepping on his shadow for too long
But how could he expect me to be strong?
He'll never catch me when i fall
Never lift me when i crawl
When i left he fell apart
Said he wondered from the start
Why do i need to win?
Why do i need to win?
My mind is ten thousand miles away
From my feet
Somewhere between my heart and my legs
There's a cavern expanding
To make room for one more defeat
