I'll be your failure
I'll be every mistake you've made
I'll be your failure
I'll be the story they tell to make the children behave
I'll be your failure
So that you don't have to be yourself
I'll be your failure
And don't worry I won't ask for help
A failure in the eyes of the lord
In the mouths of the crowd
In the loud of the sound
In a box in the ground
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
Failure
A phoenix collapsing in ash
I'll be your failure
A thousand miles an hour then crash
I'll be you your failure
I'll be everything you need be to be
I'll be your failure
Paint your sins in a portrait of me
A failure in the eyes of the lord
In the mouths of the crowd
In the loud of the sound
In a box in the ground
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
I'll be your failure
I'll be your failure
I'll be your failure
Fail
Fail
Fail
Fail
Fail....
I've got a headache
And I can't fix my life
The fire escape it rattles
With the hows of the night
Just cut out all the bad parts
With the mind of a knife
Deadly it does its duty
But it can't heal the blind
Can't heal the blind
The purple dots
And the crawling designs
Magenta lights don't watch
Where they fly
Drying out
And the plastic it cracks
And the shadow blobs
They lunge and they laugh
They're laughing at me
The heat outside
Says I'd better stay inside
This cocoon is dirty
But so is my mind
Sweating out my soul
As my body cries
Fly into the sun
As my body
As my body dies
Body dies....
I'll be your failure
I'll be every mistake you've made
I'll be your failure
I'll be the story they tell to make the children behave
I'll be your failure
So that you don't have to be yourself
I'll be your failure
And don't worry I won't ask for help
A failure in the eyes of the lord
In the mouths of the crowd
In the loud of the sound
In a box in the ground
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
Failure
A phoenix collapsing in ash
I'll be your failure
A thousand miles an hour then crash
I'll be you your failure
I'll be everything you need be to be
I'll be your failure
Paint your sins in a portrait of me
A failure in the eyes of the lord
In the mouths of the crowd
In the loud of the sound
In a box in the ground
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
Don't turn around
I'll be your failure
I'll be your failure
I'll be your failure
Fail
Fail
Fail
Fail
