Dance Gavin Dance
For the Jeers
[Chorus: Andrew Wells & Tilian]
I'll never fail, I'll never fail
The pressure fuels my breath
And then it burns my lungs
I'll never fail, I'll never fail
Feel like a kid again
But I'm oblivious
I am the king of what I know
But I'm a slave to what I don't
I will never fail, never fail
Know better than to keep a score
Why am I always keeping score?
I'll never fail, what if I fail?
[Post-Chorus: Andrew Wells]
Complicate my complex
Contradict my fears
I'm an addict for the jeers, you know
Radiate in context
Don't believe my tears
Gotta give the people what they want
[Refrain: Jon Mess]
Child getting wild
Hold my growing cow
Shape it up when times get rough
Then show them how you styled
[Verse 1: Jon Mess]
Make 'em do splits with a loving patience
I wrap around, doing flanking, rankin'
In the store so unprepared
That I better buy fifty bears, ducks are scared
No go on the rubber kite
But I gotted it tight as night
Bro ho in another fight
But I wanna dump fifty fish on Karen
[Chorus: Andrew Wells & Tilian]
I'll never fail, I'll never fail
The pressure fuels my breath
And then it burns my lungs
I'll never fail, I'll never fail
Feel like a kid again
But I'm oblivious
I am the king of what I know
But I'm a slave to what I don't
I will never fail, never fail
Know better than to keep a score
Why am I always keeping score?
I'll never fail, what if I fail?
[Post-Chorus: Andrew Wells]
Complicate my complex
Contradict my fears
I'm an addict for the jeers, you know
Radiate in context
Don't believe my tears
Gotta give the people what they want
[Verse 2: Andrew Wells & Tilian]
Stay sharp, don't disgrace your treasured sounds
But it's obvious I've been hanging onto a world that kills everything it touches
You got everything you've wanted
Now you're gonna blow it
'Cause you're scared of tripping on your pessimism
But I don't call the shots
I report to my thoughts, they're unrelenting
[Verse 3: Andrew Wells & Tilian, Jon Mess]
All that used to give me meaning
Maybe what I've been misreading
Is it just another test?
You should give it your best
All the values I believed in
The passion I'm policing
Feels like another test
You should give it your
[Refrain: Jon Mess]
Child getting wild
Hold my growing cow
Shape it up when times get rough
Then show them how you styled
[Verse 4: Jon Mess]
I think of splattering and shattering these sprayed out things
If I get bored enough, I'm ordering up the big ice cream
I tried to shut up my dumb butt with gains and grains
This hurtful food, inflict chow pain
[Chorus: Andrew Wells & Tilian]
I'll never fail, I'll never fail
The pressure fuels my breath
And then it burns my lungs
I'll never fail, I'll never fail
Feel like a kid again
But I'm oblivious
I am the king of what I know
But I'm a slave to what I don't
I will never fail, never fail
Know better than to keep a score
Why am I always keeping score?
I'll never fail, what if I fail?
