I used to wear this hair as a badge of courage That the fire in me would never subside. But now I find myself broken down Digested by life. I used to wear this hair to spite life To challenge it to a never ending duel. But now I find myself defeated Incapacitated if you will. I used to wear this hair as a declaration That I would always be spunky. But now I find myself deflated Unable to continue on.

Defeat
I used to wear this hair as a badge of courage That the fire in me would never subside. But now I find myself broken down Digested by life. I used to wear this hair to spite life To challenge it to a never ending duel. But now I find myself defeated Incapacitated if you will. I used to wear this hair as a declaration That I would always be spunky. But now I find myself deflated Unable to continue on.
