All My Failures - Dawes

ddressing a prayer into the air

And the shadows of lights

So nobody heard love’s not for words

In a world at the end of it’s night

For everyone that left me

They’re so easy to forget

'Cause I haven’t let my failures hit me yet.

Your voice on the phone

The blood from the stone

And tears that I can’t understand

As if I could heal the guilt I don’t feel

Or by silently giving my hand

Well, I’m sure I’d never loved you

It’d be too fierce and too correct

'Cause I haven’t let my failures hit me yet

May my demon reveal itself tenderly

May he not leave me broken

May he leave me to be

So wherever I’m bound

My ear to the ground and my thoughts on their way back to you

As eternity’s slave, you could write that on my grave

When I’m finished resisting it’s true

While I’m shaking hands with darkness

It’s with the warm wind that I admit

That I haven’t let my failures hit me yet
