Straightaway - Failure Is A Success lyrics

I was let down I was stabbed it felt like I was left for dead Six feet under and my head deep under water Overwhelmed by this self-defeating feeling The self-illusion to be in this struggle for the win I clenched my fists, I grit my teeth I lost my hope and tried too hard not to let go Take a step back and put your pride aside Your eyes can see but your heart is blind From darkness comes clarity to believe that Destiny holds something better for you to see There was a raging war inside I couldn't settle I got lost into the throes of desperation To realize that strength was mistaken for weakness But understand failure is a success Take a step back and put your pride aside Your eyes can see but your heart is blind From darkness comes clarity to believe that Destiny holds something better for you to see Picking up the pieces trying to heal all the bruises Losing trust drowning in disbelief Feeding the fire with a self-inflicted misery Hoping for a chance to set myself free
