I tried

I truly did
I gave it my all
I gave it my best
Why is it so hard

Why am I so bad

I did it again



Another fail
That’s what I’m best at
Letting people down

Fail, Fail, Fail

Why is it so easy to Fail
The weight of the world is on your
Shoulder
And guess what you do


FAIL

You can’t fix it
You can’t change it


You have to move on
But remember you failed
