Expect To Fail

Weighted, on broken knees I cry
Begging, screaming why?
Weakened pariah, alone in denial, final reprisal
Me, fixed upon the ground
Rusted, broken crown
Hopeless impaled, hammer the nail
Expect to fail

And so, the daylight grows
Then I see
The cracks begin to show
And reveal all that I was meant to be
For all the darkness knows
Glory be
Forces long opposed
Are tearing their way from inside of
Pray for tomorrow
Kingdom of sorrow
Pray for tomorrow

Weighted, on broken knees I cry
Begging, screaming why?
Weakened pariah, alone in denial, final reprisal
Me, fixed upon the ground
Rusted, broken crown
Hopeless impaled, hammer the nail
Expect to fail

And so, the daylight grows
Then I see
The cracks begin to show
And reveal all that I was meant to be
For all the darkness knows
Glory be
Forces long opposed
Are tearing their way from inside of me

And so, the daylight grows
Then I see
The cracks begin to show
And reveal all that I was meant to be
For all the darkness knows
Glory be
Forces long opposed
Are tearing their way from inside of me

Glory be
They're tearing their way from inside of me
Glory be
They're tearing their way from inside of me

I'm still standing
'Cause I'm expected to fail
I'm still standing
'Cause I'm expected to fail

I'm here in spite of you
You know you wanted to
Erase for just a taste and maybe change the rule to two
Pray for tomorrow
Kingdom of sorrow
Baptised in my demise, a husk so frail and hollow

Weighted, on broken knees I cry
Begging, screaming why?
Weakened pariah, alone in denial, final reprisal
Me, fixed upon the ground
Rusted, broken crown
Hopeless impaled, hammer the nail
'Cause I'm expected to fail
