The Long Defeat

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
I have joined the long defeat That falling set in motion All my strength and energy Are raindrops in the ocean So conditioned for the win To share in victor's stories But in the place of ambition's din I've heard of other glories I pray for an idea And a way I cannot see It's too heavy to carry And impossible to leave I can't just fight when I think I'll win That's the end of all belief And nothing has provoked it more Than a possible defeat I pray for an idea And a way I cannot see It's too heavy to carry And impossible to leave We walk a while we sit and rest We lay it on the altar I won't pretend to know what's next But what I have I've offered I pray for a vision And a way I cannot see It's too heavy to carry And impossible to leave I pray for inspiration And a way I cannot see It's too heavy to carry And impossible to leave
