“I Defeat”

Lyrics

	We were doing so well,
	We had broken the spell,
	And freedom seemed just within reach.
	We had managed the bend,
	Between lover and friend,
	Found a place we could possibly meet,

	Yes, it's me,
	I can't help myself;
	I just run headlong to defeat,

	Yes, it's me,
	I can't help myself;
	I defeat, I defeat, I defeat, I defeat

	I'm so hard on myself;
	Don't deserve any help,
	So I must let you go, let you go.
	So I pushed you away,
	While I hoped you would stay,
	But I don't let you know, let you know.

	Yes, it's me,
	I can't help myself;
	I keep running around to this beat,

	Yes, it's me,
	I can't help myself;
	I defeat, I defeat, I defeat, I defeat.

	Yes, it's me,
	I can't help myself;
	I keep running around to this beat.

	Yes, it's me,
	I can't help myself;
	I defeat, I defeat, help me,

	I can't help myself;
	I defeat, I defeat, help me,

	I can't help myself;
	I defeat, I defeat, help me.
