Hereafter - I Have Been Defeated

maybe i am foolish for the way i am
maybe this was foolish from the start
i have lost my version of a parachute
i forgot my version of the truth
i was never meant to be a president
i was never meant to be a king
i was only kidding when i took the job
i have been defeated
i have been defeated
for the last time
for the last time

everyone was cheering when the games began
everyone was hoping for the best
mother called to wish me well and send me love
and father called to tell me what to do
i was getting desperate when the devil came
my teeth were white, his eyes were bright and clear
i admit, i never saw the truck approaching
i have been defeated
i have been defeated
for the last time
for the last time

i will not run from this
