The Creepshow - Failing Grade lyrics

We'd only heard of such betrayal through rumors before (Kept feeding the fire and finally we've had enough.) Until it showed itself alone at our front door (So distorted and bloated and dragged straight through the mud.) Don't flinch! I won't think twice to call your bluff And this time I won't be dragged through the wreckage and flood We've seen this all before! There's no one else but me to pull us - from the brink You'll see - the truth - compared to this mess you've made Maybe - someday you'll wake up from this fantasy And then - it will be too late for you to elevate this failing grade I know it frightens you to finally see the truth. (That love, hate and anguish was only a waste of time.) But if you only know the vice she had on you. (It twisted and tightened her grip on your swift decline.) A new chance to exercise our common grudge. A clean slate A promise forged on the fire in blood We've seen this all before! There's no one else but me to pull us - from the brink You'll see - the truth - compared to this mess you've made Maybe - someday you'll wake up from this fantasy And then - it will be too late for you to elevate your way and save this failing grade We've seen this all before! There's no one else but me to pull us - from the brink(brink) You'll see(see) - the truth(truth) - compared to this mess you've made Maybe(made) - someday you'll wake up from this fantasy And then - it will be too late for you to elevate your way and save this failing grade
