James - I Defeat Lyrics

We were doing so well,

We had broken the spell,

And freedom seemed just within reach.

We had managed the bend,

Between lover and friend,

Found a place we could possibly meet,



Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I just run headlong to defeat,



Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, I defeat, I defeat



I'm so hard on myself,

Don't deserve any help,

So I must let you go, let you go.

So I pushed you away,

While I hoped you would stay,

But I don't let you know, let you know,



Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I keep running around to this beat,



Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, I defeat, I defeat



Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I keep running around to this beat,



Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, help me,



I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, help me,



I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, help me.
