Strength In Failure
STRENGTH IN FAILURE
What is the point of saying I know I have failed you
When; deep down inside you know you failed me to
The who said what; to me, just a wasted time game
That what was lost just no point in trying to reclaim
To plain ignorance: there just wasn’t any, was there
Everything carefully planned, you plainly did not care
I've played my word games, put it between the lines
Only because I can and, that’s the way I am inclined
Vented my grievances, I’ve now given up, the shame
That I lost everything: while you have won the game
But: what I learnt in knowledge has put me so ahead
In putting the likes of you finally and firmly off to bed
So when I rise again, don’t come around on my door
I plainly: will not be there, I have gone, for evermore
