The Failure

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Give it away, watch it turn There's nothing I can do for you These are my very last And don't we all know it... As chemistry turns into crime I'm helplessly watching it die [Pre-Chorus] You were never supposed to be Someone who'd get this close [Chorus] This is not my victory Get your sickness away from me Accusations in velveteen Tear it up, tear it open, and lay it beside me... [Verse 2] Show me a way something frail Gimme one reason to break these chains I played your very last All your desires But something inside of me broke I used to be more than this... [Pre-Chorus] You were never supposed to be Someone who'd come this close [Chorus] This is not my victory Get your sickness away from me Accusations in velveteen Tear it up, tear it open, and lay it beside me... [Post-Chorus] Together, we fall Together, we fail [Bridge] Drain me from all life inside I will hurt you ever so carefully We will breathe in unison Through an iron lung For the lost things we become I'll be your crown of thorns and You'll be my cross to bear [Outro] You hate me so good
