Checkmate

No Trigger
Talk about a never-ender
Towed along against the weeds and dredging shallows
This could be the worst deal ever
Say it like you mean it
I will not be defeated
We're on the bus, on the street, on the beach
They're looking back
You're watching over me
With groceries and coffee beans, the dishes clean
I rinse, repeat until the ghosts swallow the daylight
The circles carve ruts so deep around the city
It might fall into the earth
Talk about a never-ender
Towed along against the weeds and dredging shallows
This could be the worst deal ever
Say it like you mean it
I will not be defeated
I won't
On the one hand there's a thorn in my side
Digging in at every step of the way
And on the other hand, I want to rip myself in half and seize the day
With the grey skies breaking away and sunlight on my face
Now the grey skies are breaking away
The sunlight's shining on me
Talk about a never-ender
Towed along against the weeds and dredging shallows
This could be the worst deal ever
Might as well repeat it
I will not be defeated
Will not be defeated
Will not be defeated
Will not be defeated
Talk about a never-ender
Say it like you mean it
I will not be defeated
