Patterns of Failure

Lyrics

With better eyes I could have seen the disgust on your face When I spoke your name And with better ears I could have heard the disgust in your voice When you spoke mine And with better hands I could have felt your skin crawl When my fingers touched down upon your neck And with a better nose I could have smelled the vomit churning in your stomach When you touched me out of pity And perhaps with a better voice My words might have done more than flatter And yet even with all these things I know it would have happened the same way Because even now I still wish I could do it All over again
