Defeatist ft. Petter Mossberg Lyrics

Good morning

Your first day is dawning

The crown of my creation, the apple of my eye

Words cannot possibly describe

How it hurts to see you cry

Oh how I failed to make this bed for you

I promise I tried

You know we'll never live this failure down

Best to just let it drown

(Best to just let it drown)

You're doe-eyed and I'm headlights

My teeth are the grill that will swerve in for the kill

I'm biding my time

(And you're counting sheep)

I'll press down a pillow over your mouth and nose

Until you sleep

These are the lengths I will go to protect you

From this scorched fucking earth I have left you

I'm sorry

Just trying to ensure that you won't have to worry

These spoils, they are rotten

They'll sure be forgotten in time

With no one left to feel the hurt

(I gave you back to the earth)

There will be no redemption and no rebirth

Oh the appeasement of justified filicide

Deep inside my defeatist heart
