lyrics

Your inner self
You will never find
You are not the one
Who controls your mind

You are not prepared
To face your sin
That is why you loose
And you will never win

Your goals and your dreams
You will not achieve
And it doesn't matter
What you currently believe

You can't find a melody
And you can't find a rhyme
All your dreams are cool but you will not make it in time

All your hopes and dreams are
Washed away by your own tears and all your
Effort is worth nothing now so
Sing with me this ode to failure

Alcohol and information
Music and your heart are not pure
You did not make it in time so
Sing with me this ode to failure

I'm not good enough
For what I have planned
I am like a kid
Playing in the sand

I'm not working hard
And so my castle isn't strong
Any wave can come
And everything goes wrong

I am nothing more
Then a magazine
People look in me and
Then forget what they have seen

I'm not even worth
The air I breathe
And it doesn't matter
What I currently believe

All my hopes and dreams are
Washed away by my own tears and all my
Effort is worth nothing now so
Let me sing my ode to failure

Alcohol and information
Music and my heart are not pure
I did not make it in time
Let me sing my ode to failure

(solo)

All our hopes and dreams are
Washed away by our own tears and all our
Effort is worth nothing now so
Let us sing this ode to failure

Alcohol and information
Music and our hearts are not pure
We did not make it in time
Let us sing this ode to failure
