My latest song. As usual, crit as harshly as you want, and ill probably end up with a rewrite using all crits I liked. Enjoy.
My Only Failure
Verse 1
It looks like I've fallen
Right off of the steepest cliff
And into the arms of failure
Isn't there more to living
Than just merely existing
And letting everyone down
Chorus
How will I make it
In the eyes of the World
If my only success has been failing
In my parent's eyes
Verse 2
I keep on letting you down
Keep on getting screamed at
But what if I change that
And become just what you want me to be
Would you see me then
As more than a failure
Bridge
I'll climb back up the steepest cliff
And cling to it for my life
As I face the world
Being just what you want me to be
Following in the steps you've taken
Without glancing at the path left behind
Chorus
Have I just made it
In the eyes of the world
Have I finally failed at failing
In my parents eyes
Verse 3
What do I do now
I don't feel like myself anymore
Maybe I liked living to fail
I guess it was better than this
I guess my only failure
Was not being true to myself
Here's the rewrite. Im still open to making changes, so crit as much as u like. Enjoy. btw. srry theres not many changes. ive been having trouble getting crit for it. (changes in caps)
