In the throes of despair and adversity, resilience emerges as a prevailing theme in this powerful composition. The lyrics of "Defeated" by Breaking Benjamin reflect the struggle of an individual battling personal demons and enduring pain. The recurring phrase "We all fall down, the pain goes on" underscores the universality of suffering. However, it is countered with affirmations of strength - dragging the devil down, standing alone, not being defeated - symbolizing a relentless fight against adversity. The lines "As I fight for one last prayer, I keep holding on" suggest a desperate clinging to hope despite disillusionment. Interestingly, the rejection "It's not you" implies a realization that external validation or support isn't necessary for survival or victory. Ultimately, this song is a testament to human resilience and self-reliance in overcoming life's trials and tribulations.
Defeated
Lyrics
Slip away, your vanity is gone, I'm falling out of place
We all fall down, the pain goes on
We bear through the war and turn the lost away
We all fall down, the pain goes on
And I'll be the fire that dries the flood
As I fight for one last prayer, I keep holding on
No love to believe in
As I drag the Devil down, I will stand alone
No longer defeated
Stripped away, we rise above it all, forgotten and betrayed
We all fall down, the pain goes on
No better than before, still broken and afraid
We all fall down, the pain goes on
And I'll be the cloud that hides the sun
As I fight for one last prayer, I keep holding on
No love to believe in
As I drag the Devil down, I will stand alone
No longer defeated
I'm falling to pieces, (Pained and used)
I know what I needed, it's not you
It's not you
As I fight for one last prayer, I keep holding on
No love to believe in
As I drag the Devil down, I will stand alone
No longer defeated
No longer defeated
No longer defeated
