Failure

Failure

A Poem by Travis Prino

Father forgive me

for all the times I've disappointed you

I'll never be what you want me to be

and nothing I do is ever good enough for you

so father forgive me

cause this time I'm following my dream


I never wanted to be a failure

I'm just trying to make things better

for everyone

I never wanted to be a failure

I'm stuck in between the pressure

and the pain


mother forgive me

for all the times that I have hurt you

I never meant for it to be this way

but I pushed you so far that we wound up apart

so mother forgive me

cause this time I'm actually leaving


I never wanted to be a failure

I'm just trying to make things better

for everyone

I never wanted to be a failure

I'm stuck in between the pressure

and the pain


brother forgive me

for all the times that I wasn't there for you

I've never tried so hard for anything in life

but somehow I lost control and left you out in the cold

so brother forgive me

cause this time you get the best of me


I never wanted to be a failure

I'm just trying to make things better

for everyone

I never wanted to be a failure

I'm stuck in between the pressure

and the pain


this marks the beginning of the end

and the end of the beginning

this marks the beginning of the end

and the end of the beginning

this marks the beginning of the end

and the end of the beginning

this marks the beginning of the end

and the end of the beginning


I never wanted to be a failure

I'm just trying to make things better

for everyone

I never wanted to be a failure

I'm stuck in between the pressure

and the pain


feel the pain drive

you insane

feel the pain drive

you insane now.

Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
