Lyrics Checkmate - Demoraliser

Checkmate

I’ve done my very best to hold onto what we had,
and now you turn your back and throw it all in my face.
you never look into my eyes, you’re staring at the ground.
this is the last time that you’ll look away, if you can see at all.
i’m not some kind of pawn you can move around the place,
i don’t even belong on the board, i am a fucking monster.
how could you bring this on yourself?
led along like a blind man, hate paving the way.
Don’t you think for a second that i’m tired now?
what i wouldn’t give for a moments rest.
if i asked for death, i wouldn’t deserve such luxuries at a time like this,
when everything is wasting away.
only you can bring us back to where we were before,
i’ve never had faith in you, but still you seem to pull through.
