In My Defence

[Verse 1]
Ritual, habitual, it was a forgone conclusion
No  back bone I'm a girl gone
Take  me back to the ocean
'Cause casually we're bartering lines
That we are crossing
And  this free fall was a wrong call
Only  ignited demotion

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm waiting on a train to pass
To  feel the rush of air across my body
Knowing that the moment won't last
I breathe it in, I breathe it in
I breathe it in, I breathe it in

[Chorus]
I  brought a stick to a brick fight
I had a hope that was childlike
In my defence I was holding on for you
I took a star to a war zone
I watched eyes wide as it implodes
In my defence I was holding on for you
For you

[Verse 2]
As time slows the world knows
That the past it increases
A breeze calls to these four walls
To pick up the pieces
And that last time we had spoken
I was straddling the rail tracks
A thunder, a motion
Moving on up through my back

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm waiting on a train to pass
To feel the rush of air across my body
Knowing that the moment won't last
I breathe it in, I breathe it in
I breathe it in, I breathe it in

[Chorus]
I brought a stick to a brick fight
I had a hope that was childlike
In my defence I was holding on for you
I took a star to a war zone
I watched eyes wide as it implodes
In my defence I was holding on for you
For you

[Bridge]
I had hope like a child of more
Like a child
And the child in me saw the good in you
I had hope like a child of more
Like a child
And the child in me saw the good in you

[Outro]
I brought a stick to a brick fight
I had a hope that was childlike
In my defence I was holding on for you
I took a star to a war zone
I watched eyes wide as it implodes
In my defence I was holding on for you
For you
For you
