Every Failure's As Sweet As The Last

With starving appetites for arguments,
You remind me of a secret I was never meant to tell.

Life is just a trial, and we're waiting for the verdict,
Guilty as charged, for loving you too much.
Sentenced to losing it all.

Your memories leave me gasping for breath I've long lost,
Drowning in flames,
Burning in water,
Dying with a perfect smile on my face as you watch,
Your biggest triumph, withering in front of you.

Everybody's waiting for that something to hold onto,
For something worth keeping.
I'm tripping over all the promises into a self dug grave,
I spiral down, just to find you.
Every failure's as sweet as the last.

I never knew you were a Saint,
What a shameful fall from Grace,
I'll catch you if you let me,
I'll give you everything if you promise me tomorrow.

You can smile smugly at me,
Mockingly motion me forward
Enjoying my weakness of heart, for following.
But one day boy, you'll be locked up tight,
In a heart shaped grave, I promise never to open.

Everybody's waiting for that something to hold onto,
For something worth keeping.
I'm tripping over all the promises into a self dug grave,
I spiral down, just to find you.
Every failure's as sweet as the last.
