Failing - Enemy You

Friday night, everyone’s moving

I don’t make a sound

I bite my lip to control this feeling

my head is spinning around

it’s fighting, prevailing

I’m failing now

in your gaze I see a fire

I try to look away

I close my eyes

to shut off your image

but I’m still a slave

I’m trying, travailing

I’m failing now

can’t beat this thing I deplore

what am I fighting this for?

I’m trailing, I’m failing now

governing my every action

it is my only true function

I’m failing, I’m failing now
