Defeat
InGhosts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To guide my path back to ground
Suspended in doubt without a way back down
It won't end, I can't stand
My eyes sick, my chained hands
The pace quick, it carves, it sets in over and over and over again
Held down by the weight we carry
We are broken
We are broken
And now my heart's skipping beats
What if my answer is incomplete
A prison built just for me
Solitary; confined and wearied
We're all lost for a time
And our feet feel buried
Held down by the weight we carry
We are broken pieces
With a broken meaning
With forbidden traces
Of a stronger feeling; defeat
We are stronger than defeat
We are stronger than defeat
And before my heart breaks
Double crossed by my uncertainty
Dear unrest strangles me
Never-ending my infirmity
We're all losing sleep
The path dark and empty
Searching for a sanctuary
We are broken pieces
With a broken meaning
With forbidden traces
Of a stronger feeling; defeat
We are stronger than defeat
We are stronger than defeat
We are stronger than defeat
We are stronger than defeat
The lyrics to InGhosts’ song “Defeat” speak to feelings of doubt, isolation, and uncertainty that can plague us all at times. The singer is searching for a guiding light to help them find their way back down to solid ground, but it has yet to appear. They feel stuck, with no clear path out of their current state of doubt and despair. The repetition of the line “we are broken” adds to the sense of hopelessness and reinforces the idea that the singer feels shattered and in need of repair.
The second verse introduces the idea of incompleteness and confinement, hinting at a sense of being trapped within oneself. The singer’s heart is “skipping beats” as they search for answers, and they worry that their efforts may be futile. The image of a “prison built just for me” further emphasizes the sense of isolation and entrapment. The chorus repeats the refrain that we are all broken pieces, but there is a glimmer of hope in the final lines, as the singer asserts that “we are stronger than defeat” and suggests that it is possible to overcome these hardships.
Throughout the song, there is a strong sense of desperation and longing for something more, but also a determination to push through and emerge on the other side. The repetition of certain phrases and images, such as the metaphor of being buried under the weight of something heavy, provides a consistent thread that ties the different verses together. In the end, “Defeat” speaks to the universal experience of struggling with self-doubt and uncertainty, and encourages us to find the strength to persevere in the face of these challenges.
