I DEFEAT

First released : 1999

I Defeat is a duet between Tim and Sinead O'Connor that was kept off the Millionaires album as the band did not want two Sinead tracks (the other is Vervaceous) on the album.  At the time it appeared on the b-side of Just Like Fred Astaire, Tim was quoted as saying that the duet could have been released as a single.

LYRICS

We were doing so well,

We had broken the spell,

And freedom seemed just within reach.

We had managed the bend,

Between lover and friend,

Found a place we could possibly meet,

Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I just run headlong to defeat,

Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, I defeat, I defeat

I'm so hard on myself,

Don't deserve any help,

So I must let you go, let you go.

So I pushed you away,

While I hoped you would stay,

But I don't let you know, let you know,

Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I keep running around to this beat,

Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, I defeat, I defeat

Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I keep running around to this beat,

Yes it's me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, help me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, help me,

I can't help myself,

I defeat, I defeat, help me.
