Defeat Me As moments slowly drift away And time groans in anger I sent a letter to today But recieved no answer My mind runs frantically through gray fields Seeking refuge from thought Yet when the day is done it yields With desire to be caught Defeat Me I watch the darkness creeping in Bearing absolution "Forgive the day for all its sins
Enter night's illusions" Yet daytime struggles once more to stay And relief flees the fight And through the dark it makes its way To allow a new light Defeat Me And when the day is gone And time has played its final tune I let my memories defeat me I let my head recline My mind will gradually resign And there I stand At last defeated
