Checkmate

talk about a never-ender
 towed along against the weeds and dredging shallows
 this could be the worst deal ever
 say it like you mean it I will not be defeated
 we're on the bus on the street on the beach they're looking back
 you're watching over me
 with groceries and coffee beans the dishes clean I rinse repeat
 until the ghosts swallow the daylight
 the circles carve ruts so deep around the city
 it might fall into the earth
 talk about a never-ender
 towed along against the weeds and dredging shallows
 this could be the worst deal ever
 say it like you mean it I will not be defeated
 on the one hand there's a thorn in my side digging in
 at every step of the way and
 on the other hand I wanna rip myself in half and seize the day
 with the grey skies breaking away and sunlight on my face
 now the grey skies are breaking away the sunlight's shining on me
 talk about a never-ender towed
 along against the weeds and dredging shallows
 this could be the worst deal ever
 might as well repeat it I will not be defeated
 will not be defeated
 talk about a never-ender say it like you mean it I will not be defeated
