Lyrics:

don't write cause I don't think

I don't have a need to speak

I don't see the bright side, quite as clear

Accolades and happy days

They don't ever last

Stories of courage clouded up with fear

In the broom grass I would l lie

Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me

From Victory, I tried

To match eternal light with how I live my life

Of course, I was forced to retreat

From victory I accept defeat

Waxy green and yellow walls

Outside my window fall

Covering the light I thought I'd see

Am I sad or am I sick?

What's at the root of it?

Do I throw my hands and quit?

Something tells me no

In the broom grass I would l lie

Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me

From victory, I tried

To match eternal light with how I live my life

Of course, I was forced to retreat

From victory I accept defeat

Worries on all sides of my mind

In silence, my darkness is denied

In the broom grass I would l lie

Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me

From victory, I tried

To match eternal light with how I live my life

Of course, I was forced to retreat

From victory I accept defeat

From victory I accept defeat
