The World Needs Winners - Defender

Time and again
I feel nothing
Close circle of friends
Keep running
But who could ever really blame them
So I appease myself
And ring out my organs
And sound out the warning

On the other side
I am selfish and dry
Too self-aware, yeah I know
I will bathe in the river
Think back on November's bliss
And all that I've missed
Cause the pain in one's heart
Played in this old guitar
Cannot be touched, yeah I know
Tonight I will remember
All those lost forever in dust
What they'd want from us

Time and again
I feel too much
I say my amen's
Bothered by a touch
The world has collapsed
Imploding Zen
So dive right on in
To an ocean of Shen
At least now and then

But it's not as low
As the spirits of those
Blackened by grief, yeah I know
I will bathe in the river
Make time for the reaper in black
That's where I've sat
Cause the pain in one's heart
Written in these memoirs
Cannot be rushed, yeah I know
Tonight I will remember
The labor of what they have faced
Oh, such a waste

When tragedy strikes
That's when they will unite
Consoling souls, yeah I know
Once I've bathed in the river
And catch sight of forever again
I'll realize then
That the pain in one's heart
Can't compare to the stars
It cannot be touched, I know
I'll try to remember
How she has been hindered in ways
That I can't explain
