Defeatist

Restless nights
Countless tears have been enough
On my knees, broken down
"Don't give up" sounds to me like bitter words
Bereft of meaning
They'll break your heart

Sounds easy enough
You are the victim of your own demise

Just take a breath and look yourself in the mirror
What do you see? A shattered soul, fighting demons
Well look around and get in line
You're not that special
And that's for a fact

No one is coming to save you
Self-pity will hang you and relish your failure

Give in
Life will drag you down
Sometimes to win you need to fail

Roll the dice
Depressed and beaten down by your feelings
Wipe the tears you fool and admit it
Licking your wounds, no shame
Why won't you just give in?

Remorse is for the dead
Stand up and face your Gods

Rise to fall again
I feel your pain
Watchful eyes are sizing you
Every opinion carving through
Just be honest with yourself
The grimmest lie
Starts with you
So...

Give in
Life will drag you down
Sometimes to live you need to die
Like a phoenix, ready to burn the past and fly high above the ash

No one is coming to save you
No one is coming to help you
Nobody cares if you survive
You're all you've fucking got
What the fuck did you think
You'd achieve
By letting go
