The Sound of Failure Lyrics

Pick me up

And dust off all the dirt

I guess I'm use to being hurt

And that is why

I wear this long sleeved shirt

Hiding all the cuts

That they'd inflict

Maybe I'm the one who's sick

Of losing everything I do

Dress me up in colors

Black and blue

I guess I'm broken just like you

Stitch me up

Or give me some glue

Missing all the pieces

That they'd steal

Maybe I'm the one who feels

Like losing now that your gone

Dress me up in colors that I like

For my requiem tonight

You'll miss me when I'm gone

This will be the sound

Of failure at it's very best

This will be the sound

Of my heart when it comes to rest

This could be the day

That you wake up and you realize Everything you lost

And how you made your life a lie

Take me by my words

Or by my heart

Work your lies just like an art

Take your brush

And make me blush

Can you paint for me?

Images of love

That they'd depict

maybe I'm the one who's sick

Of losing everything I do

When you said you loved me

Did you lie?

I need to know before I die

In your arms tonight

And then you'll carry on

Proceed with a caution

As you step

For my eyes have never slept

Since the day

That you took your love away

Bury me carry me

Scatter me out to sea

All my love and memories

Are kept just where

Your heart should be
