Defiantly Loved Songtext

von Stoney

There's hounds behind me,
For the blood upon my hands.
No crowd will hide me
Now they've found the path I ran.
I pound the backstreets,
Fear numbed my aching bones.
Feet don't fail me
Take me home.

Faster, faster,
You know time's not on my side.
The truth I harbour
Is getting harder now to hide.
A child abandoned
Coming present in my skin,
Still unforgiven for giving in.

But so defiant, defiant, defiantly loved by you,
Defiant, defiantly loved, loved loved.

Your eyes unblinded
As the lies were boldly sworn,
I guard a proud heart
And my silver tongue was drawn.
Our lives divided,
But we steel our nerve and spine.
I for your own sake,
And you for mine.

So defiant, defiant, defiantly loved by you,
Defiant, defiantly loved, loved, loved.

The river rolls on
With a grace upon it's shame.
A faithful white swan,
Loyal to it's poisoned veins.
A thousand secrets
That have drowned within those depths,
Bound and silenced
On a stone cold bed.

So defiant, defiant, defiantly loved by you,
Defiant, defiantly loved, loved, loved.

When I was locked in
Paranoid, involuntary choices,
I was loved, loved.
When I was screaming
But was one in a cacophony of solitary voices,
I was loved, loved.
Forever screaming in the void.
Forever screaming at the void.

Defiant, defiant, defiantly loved by you,
Defiant, defiantly loved.
