Failure
Embracing Redemption: Confronting Failures and Seeking Forgiveness
Lyrics
Our lives are marked with constant failure
Our lives are consistently marked by failures.
Nothing more than what we choose for ourselves
We have control over our choices, and our lives are a reflection of those choices.
Broken, in denial
We are damaged and unwilling to accept the reality of our situation.
Our scars show us for who we really are
Our scars reveal our true selves.
Marked with suffering we have taken and done
We have experienced and caused suffering.
This is us
This is an acknowledgment of our identity.
I'm so sick of the way we blame others for mistakes we make
Frustration with blaming others for our own mistakes.
Are we responsible or do we cower away
Questioning our responsibility and tendency to avoid facing consequences.
Sick of the way we use others for our gain
Disapproval of using others for personal gain.
We are depraved, we are weak
Recognition of our depravity and weakness.
We are weak
Reiteration of our inherent weakness.
But I don't want to struggle
Expressing a desire to avoid hardship and challenges.
I don't want to fear who I am inside
Fear of discovering one's true self.
I need more than me
Acknowledging the need for something beyond oneself.
When it's all gone, when it all fades
Facing the emptiness when everything is gone.
I'll be on my knees, forgive me
Seeking forgiveness while in a vulnerable state.
I'm not a failure with the price You paid
Claiming not to be a failure due to the sacrifice of someone else.
Give me a second chance, give me forgiveness
Pleading for a second chance and forgiveness.
When it's all gone, when it all fades
Reiterating the vulnerability and the need for forgiveness.
I'll be on my knees forgiven
Being forgiven and given a second chance.
Given a second chance, given forgiveness
Receiving forgiveness and a second chance.
I have done this on my own and I can't take it anymore
Expressing the difficulty of facing challenges alone.
Forgive me for the last time
Seeking forgiveness for the last time.
Forgive me for the first time and the last time
Requesting forgiveness for both the first and last time.
This is a battle, this is a fear who I am inside
Describing life as a battle and expressing the need for self-awareness.
I need more than me
Reiterating the need for something beyond oneself.
Forgive me for the first time and the last time
Requesting forgiveness for both the first and last time (repeated).
I need you to fix me
Expressing a need for external intervention to fix personal issues.
I need you to be my everything
Acknowledging a dependency on someone to be everything.
Because you are all that I have
Recognizing the sole importance of the referenced person.
