I Stand Defeated (Live)
I stand defeated since I don’t know when
I stand defeated by original sin
I stand defeated by my origins
I stand defeated

I stand defeated but I don’t know why
I stand defeated by the blinding light
I stand defeated without a fight
I stand defeated

I started beating on a broken drum
I started grinning like an idiot
I started singing with a shattered voice
I stand defeated for the hell of it

I must be going now, auf wiеdersehen
Just turn out thе lights, I’m on my way
I must be going now, do svidaniya [pet]
Don’t push me honey, I’m not finished yet

I stand defeated by the blood of Christ
I stand defeated for the sake of Pete
I stand defeated by the sacred feet
I stand defeated

I stand defeated by the curse of life
I stand defeated by my boss’s wife
I stand defeated by a broken down car
I stand defeated
I stand defeated right in front of you
I think I’m dreaming but I know it’s true
I stand to lose my most precious gift
I stand defeated by a TV set

I must be going now, auf wiedersehen
Just turn out the lights, I’m on my way
I must be going now, do svidaniya [pet]
Don’t push me honey, I’m not finished yet

I stand defeated and I don’t know why
I stand defeated and I don’t know why
I stand defeated and I don’t know why
I stand defeated and I don’t know why

I started beating on a broken drum
I started grinning like an idiot
I started singing with a shattered voice
I stand defeated for the hell of it

I must be going now, auf wiedersehen
Just turn out the lights, I’m on my way
I must be going now, do svidaniya [pet]
Don’t push me honey, I’m not finished yet

I stand defeated by original sin
I stand defeated by a shit-eating grin
I stand defeated and I don’t know why
I stand defeated and I don’t know why
I stand defeated by the burning truth
I stand defeated by the likes of you!
I stand defeated and I don’t know why
I stand defeated and I don’t know why
I stand defeated and I don’t know why
