Defeatists Songtext
von Gumshoes

I′ll be free as a dreaming american
Flag upon the peak of health
Hope you hate the taste of the medicine
Knowing how you cheat yourself

What I need is a meaner face
To adore the distortion before it breaks

So go ahead and take my money!
Change ain't funding the masterplan
Go ahead and take my status
Hey, what does it matter to me?


I′m a noose cutting loose, I am severance
Toughen up a tick or two
Just as well, go to hell, make it elegant
Suffer like it's fitting you

Never seen a real saint
It ain't what I got, it′s what you ain′t

So go ahead and take my money!
Change ain't funding the masterplan
Go ahead and take my status
Hey, what does it matter to me?

The day you get wise to the ways that your ties are your chains
You′ll let go of your mind until only the primal remains
And free as a con you'll be beating up god on the street
Hot blood on the lips, it ain′t suffering, it's defeat!


So go ahead and take my money!
Change ain′t funding the masterplan
Go ahead and take my status
Hey, what does it matter to me?
