英文摇滚歌曲：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 temptations¹ (temptations)

All your hopes and dreams,
washing away silently²
forget everything you taught me (you taught me)
when I looked up to you

Fall to your knees
and give up your aspirations³ (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

So how can you expect

me to just close my eyes
and forget your mistakes?
defending you is getting
harder everyday, day

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

So how can you expect
me to just close my eyes
and forget your mistakes?
defending you is getting
harder everyday, day
So how can you expect
me to just close my eyes
and forget your mistakes?
defending you is getting
harder everyday, day
You've lost it all
