The Process and the Failure

from The Outstretched Arms of Damnation by Sworn Vengeance

/

lyrics

Falling from the pedestal
Has never burned like this before
The searing sensation
Of failure stings my pride
Broken and shattered again
It feels like I’m always in this condition
Looking at myself
I seem so ravaged through and through
Beaten by emotion and
Dragged through the mud
Was it all my fault this fell apart?
I can’t find direction in demise
And so it happens again
The loss of love and the failure of the heart
The patchwork process begins again
Each time a piece is lost
As I pick up the rusted needle
I struggle as I pierce the scars from time before
The bruised remains of past mistakes
Still tender to the touch
I’ll never comprehend this pain
The failure comes so fast
And then the heart is dropped
And as it lays in pieces
I try again
But failure comes so fast
Once again the heart is dropped
And as it lays in pieces
It’s time to surrender forever
Falling from the pedestal
Has never burned like this before
The searing sensation
Of failure stings my pride
Broken and shattered again
It feels like I’m always in this condition
Looking at myself
I seem so ravaged through and through
Broken and shattered again
