crippled black phoenix - victory lyrics
when i set out on this journey i thought it would never end
when i started down that road i could not see the end
and when i took that first step i fell in so deep
and all those things that were so hard-won i thought i would always keep
now what do you think i see standing like a wall in front of me
defeat, not victory
defeat, not victory
defeat, not victory
[chorus:]
so what are you going to do? die?
no you gonna lay down and die?
no i will not admit defeat i will not admit defeat
i will see victory
pride and deceit have choked my life like weeds
and i lost sight of what i really had what i really need
and all the things i should’ve valued
i gave away for a prayer and a song
and now when i reach out for them they are gone
now you know what i see standing in front of me
like a headstone a f-cking monument to human misery
defeat, not victory
defeat, not victory
defeat, not victory
[chorus]
do i have any friends here?
i can’t see are any of my friends here?
i can’t see what about you?
will you be a friend to me?
what about you? will you be a friend to me?
i’ve got a question to ask you and then you can ask it of me
it’s a simple request and then you can make it of me
can you forgive me? can you see what will be?
is it victory?
now i can’t show you all the things i ve seen
and i can’t make you feel anything
certainly not what they meant to me
and someday i know, no matter how hard we try
we are all going to have to lay down and die
so maybe i should just tell you what i hope and believe
for every defeat there will be a victory
for every defeat there will be a victory in defeat
victory
