Fail/Succeed

I know you're soft in the middle
Always you're so jaded around me
That bright exterior hides dark and sad laments
Always you're so jaded around me

But she gave you up because you're never up
You focus on the books you never read
But I'll tell you straight I'm not in the mood for hate
My willingness to fail leaves me free to succeed

I've been hanging out with the pessimists
Long enough to be content caught in the storm
But I'm sick and tired of appeasing you
Somewherе later on you'll think she's missing you

But you nevеr cared when you said you cared
You're nostalgic for the one you thought you loved
But I'll tell you now I will not let you break down
Blood, skin and bone are not all you're made of

But she gave you up because you're never up
You focus on the books you never read
But I'll tell you straight I'm not in the mood for hate
My willingness to fail

Yeah you never do what you say you'll do
Blood, skin and bone are not all you're made of
