The Long Defeat

歌詞

The tyranny of deterioration It worries me that it's all just a waste of time Taking one step forward, two steps back Still I believe there's a thread through the thorns Yeah I believe that somewhere it's warm And I believe that it's ever bright beyond this black So keep holding on to hope without assurance Holding on to a memory of light But will the morning come? For I know we'll never see the sun But together we'll fight the long defeat The suffering that I see all around It's enough to keep me crashing down till I... I lie wrecked and reeling from these falls Still I believe there's a word in the wire And I believe there's a way through the fire And I believe there's a joy that blooms beyond these walls
