I the Mighty - Failures lyrics
[I the Mighty - Failures lyrics]
Our actions or our visible scars?
Fuck those who judge my character
Without a spoken word
Or put their faith in only what they've heard
You dig deeper and the lines become a blur
So you squint till you're blind
Rest those tired eyes and vacant mind
There's a raven pacing the floor
Outside your cellar door
That same word he spoke before
To judge me "Nevermore"
It's all part of the plan
We come alive when they put
Our heads in the sand
Everybody wants to know what you've
Got in store for them
Laughing at all your failures
All your futures everybody wants to use your
Life as a catalyst
Reliving all your failures, all your futures
Last words are the only
Thing to be remembered
Net worth and a list of all your crimes
This world is only as big as the space
That you expand your mind
So give it up, give it up for the failures
Give it up for the ones who tried
It's not enough, not enough to live up to
The things that others wanted for your life
There's a raven pacing the floor
Outside your cellar door
That same ghostly bird of yore
He haunts me nevermore
It's all part of the plan
We come alive when they put
Our heads in the sand
Everybody wants to know what you've
Got in store for them
Laughing at all your failures
All your futures everybody wants to use your
Life as a catalyst
Reliving all your failures, all your futures
All your failures
It's a shame I even come out of your mouth
Do you ever even stop to think about
What a waste of time and energy you spend
When it's all perspective in the end?
If each star is a sun dying and burning
One by one inside this massive cosmic black
Far too expansive just to grasp
And knowing we created time and this
Grand theory of an end
Well, then it's really just a theory
Maybe things have always been
Everybody wants to know what you've
Got in store for them
Laughing at all your failures
All your futures everybody wants to use your
Life as a catalyst
Reliving all your failures, all your futures
All your failures
It's all a part of the plan
