the avett brothers - victory lyrics
[verse one]
i 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
[chorus]
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 lead my life
of course, i was forced to retreat
from victory i accept defeat
[verse two]
waxy green and yellow walls
outside my windows 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
[chorus]
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 lead my life
of course, i was forced to retreat
from victory i accept defeat
[bridge]
worries on all sides of my mind
in silence, my darkness is denied
[chorus]
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 lead my life
of course, i was forced to retreat
from victory i accept defeat
from victory i accept defeat
