Lyrics Defend You - Silverstein

Defend You

I’m lying down
and you can’t see why
I’ve gone to sleep
Try to relate
can’t give in to your temptations (temptations)
All your hopes and dreams,
washing away silently
forget everything you taught me (you taught me)
when I looked up to you
Fall to your knees
and give up your aspirations (aspirations)
falling to your knees
So how can you expect
me to just close my eyes
and forget your mistakes?
defending you is getting
harder everyday, day
I’m breaking down
the ending’s near,
the final call to make it through (make it through)
you’ll choose
try to relate, forget everything
you taught me (you taught me)
when I looked up to you
I’ll look inside myself for strength
like a million times before
You’ll never let it in because
I know you said
I know you said
I know, I know, I know, I know
Fall, how can you let it go?
(let it go)
how can you be this way?
I’ll never forget (never forget)
where I come from, where I’ve been
I’ll never become you
You’ve lost it all
