[length: 03:53]
[00:08.14]I don’t write ’cause I don’t think
[00:12.00]I don’t have a need to speak
[00:15.76]I don’t see the bright side, quite as clear
[00:22.81]Accolades and happy days
[00:26.07]They don’t ever last
[00:29.73]Stories of courage clouded up with fear
[00:37.98]In the broom grass, I would l lie
[00:41.81]Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me
[00:48.44]From victory, I tried
[00:54.02]To match eternal light with how I live my life
[01:00.81]Of course, I was forced to retreat
[01:07.96]From victory,I accept defeat
[01:13.67]
[01:19.26]Waxy green and yellow walls
[01:23.05]Outside my windows fall
[01:26.71]Covering the light I thought I’d see
[01:33.77]Am I sad or am I sick?
[01:37.12]What’s at the root of it?
[01:41.09]Do I throw my hands and quit?
[01:44.33]Something tells me, no
[01:49.12]In the broom grass, I would l lie
[01:53.17]Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me
[01:59.59]From victory, I tried
[02:05.40]To match eternal light with how I live my life
[02:12.31]Of course, I was forced to retreat
[02:19.32]From victory, I accept defeat
[02:25.30]
[02:32.82]Worries on all sides of my mind
[02:39.00]In silence, my darkness is denied
[02:49.20]
[02:53.29]In the broom grass, I would l lie
[02:57.16]Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me
[03:03.56]From victory, I tried
[03:09.44]To match eternal light with how I live my life
[03:16.41]Of course, I was forced to retreat
[03:24.97]And from victory, I accept defeat
[03:32.11]From victory I accept defeat
