"Failure" lyrics

"Failure"

Offer your condolences
Your emotion and your promises
I can hear you at the door
You're not there, you're not anywhere
Acting like you know me
Like you're part of my family
I don't owe you anything
You just came in

And I'm sorry if I ruined the party
And I'm sorry if all the fuss really killed your vibe
So kind of you to think to remind me
When I got so low, but I really tried
Tell me how, tell me why

I'm a failure now
Nobody wants to play with me
Nothing left to say to me anymore
I'm a failure now
Nobody wants to sing with me
Nothing left to bring to me anymore
And I know why
So high five, half right

I pardon your condition
It's a mission and I listen
And you tell yourself you're fine
Out of sight, out of mind
You asked me, "Where you going?
What you doing? What you knowing?"
And you think you got it sewn
You got it down

And I'm sorry if I pissed on your party
And I'm sorry if all of us really killed your vibe
So kind of you to think to remind me
When I got so low, but I really tried
Let it go, let it die

I'm a failure now
Nobody wants to play with me
Nothing left to say to me anymore
I'm a failure now
Nobody wants to sing with me
Nothing left to bring to me anymore
And I know why
So high five, half right

No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never do your time

You can go
You can go
You can go
You can go, you'll be fine (Oh-oh-oh)

No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never do your time

No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never do your time (Oh-oh-oh)

You can go
You can go
You can go
You can go, you'll be fine (I'm a failure now)

No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never
No, you'll never do your time

You can go
You can go
You can go
You can go, you'll be fine (Fine)

Acting like you know me
Like you're part of my family
I don't owe you anything
