Charged to be running
With a beauty so stunning
A prisoner shackled in chains
My reputation's been altered
Because my silence insults her
Why can't it all stay the same?
So here I stand and I'm defeated
The cycle's abused and the pattern's repeated
But I am not waiting, maybe I'm shaking
Standing defeated, while she's slowly fading
Down until she's out
Down until she's out
From my dreams I awaken
Still startled and shaken
As her voice filters in through my mind
I had drowned in her oceans
To go through with her motions
As her waves pulled me down from both sides
So here I stand and I'm defeated
The cycle's abused and the pattern's repeated
But I am not waiting, maybe I'm shaking
Standing defeated, while she's slowly fading
Down until she's out
Down until she's out
I wanted to get there
But now it's too late
No reasons to struggle
So I'll stay in my place
Maybe she's leaving
Or maybe she'll stay
I'll never know
I'll never know
So here I stand and I'm defeated
The cycle's abused and the pattern's repeated
But I am not waiting, maybe I'm shaking
Standing defeated, while she's slowly fading
Down until she's out
Down until she's out
