Friday at Midnight - Failing Forward Lyrics

Ever tried, ever failed, but no matter
I'll try again and fail again, but fail better

I've been digging up past mistakes
To learn from them

I'm done lying to myself
It's time I toss these books
On self-help
They never helped me anyway

The way I used to be
Isn't working anymore

I can't keep my focus
I can't make anything stick
I'm a collapsable house
Made of concrete and bricks

I've got to be something more
Than just skipping stones

These waters aren't too shallow for me anymore
And I'm not sure I feel the way I did before
My signal may be strong enough
To handle this distance between us
But no, I'm not

I can't keep my focus
I can't make anything stick
I'm a collapsable house
Made of concrete and bricks
I'm a river flowing aimlessly
Looking for a shore
I'm a dog staring out a window
Wondering where you've gone
