Failure 1977 Lyrics

You put your right hand on your left hand shoulder

You're crossing the crowd and facing the ground

You're never going to join their godless order

You find the magic in sports because the meaning is lost

Remember when you had the power,

The power to move from one place into another, another yeah

But now you always come up shorter and shorter

You find the magic in sports because the meaning is lost

The failure ain't the going

It's the staying down

It's the staying down

Remember when you had the will, had the will to go on

But now your body is old and your will is gone

Remember when you had the power,

The power to move it from one place into another and another one

Don't you miss the fever and the wild, wild things you did to yourself?

Oh what you did not to do it

Don't you miss the feeling of the outside coming in?

Strange is the need to show it

To reach it out

To reach it out

And the failure ain't the going

It's the staying down

It's the staying down

The pressure, the pressure

Leads to the high end

Taking you far away

Depression, depression

Takes over heartache

Keeping you warm and safe

Failure ain't the going

It's the staying down

It's the staying down

Failure ain't the going

No, it's the staying down

The staying down
