lyrics

Some known as friends
Condescend bend away from me
So many times
Cough in sleeves
don't believe in me

They're the ones who always tell me
that I have no destiny
I'm nothing but a failure
If that's how its bound to be
I will do it brilliantly
And be a spectacular failure

You're the ones who fail to act
You're the ones who have no tact
You're the ones I'm getting back
uh
You're the ones who fail to grow
Hung on what you think you know
How's it feel there eating crow?
Huh?
You'd fail getting out of bed
Choose your barbs in green or red
The target's always painted on for you
Yours the path that many take
Dreaming sadly not awake
God I abhor you

So many dreams
Get stuck in a roadblock
They could care less
My distant well wishers

Who among you would not tell me
that I have no destiny
I'm nothing but a failure
Since you've shown no faith in me
I will do it brilliantly
And be a spectacular failure

You're the ones who fail to act
You're the ones who have no tact
You're the ones I'm getting back
You're the ones who fail
You're the ones who fail to grow
You're the ones who gotta go
How's it feel there eating crow?
Huh?
You'd fail changing what you wore
Fail to get through opened doors
On your belly on the floor
I abhor you
You'd fail picking up the bat
On the bench your stench is at
Sluggish as a bureaucrat
outworn matt
