1.	FAILURE 02:10	lyrics	buy track
The threshold a moment in time Climbing up the flagpole Trans-polar by design And then the ground crumbles Got to stop to take your pulse When feelings are on a roll Didn’t stay strong It’s a failure The meantime you’re weak and old Got to fix it and make it alright But the damage is already done It’s a failure The meantime you’re weak and old Can’t stand to look in the mirror It makes me feel so low Feels so low Stay strong Breathe time Got to take your pulse When feelings are on display The damage is already done Feels so low Feels so low Low

about

A synth pop track exploring the dark space that centers around the shame, confusion and humiliation one can feel inward when they go too far and let their emotions get the best of them.
