The Long Defeat
Lyrics
The tyranny of deterioration
Worries me that it's all just a waste of time
Take it one step forward, two steps back
Still I believe there's a breath through the thorns
And I believe the summer'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
And when the morning comes
All I know
We'll never see the sun
But together we'll fight the long defeat
Suffering that I see all around
It's enough to keep me crashing down
'Til I, I'm wrecked and wreathing from these falls
Still I believe there's a wood 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
So keep holding on
To hope without assurance
Holding on
To a memory of light
And when the morning comes
All I know
We'll never see the sun
But together we'll fight the long defeat
Together we'll fight the long defeat
Together we'll fight the long defeat
Together we'll fight the long defeat
Together we'll fight the long defeat
Together we'll fight the long defeat
Together we'll fight the long defeat
