Failure Pains

by TheSickness   Dec 9, 2006


They say "I'm sorry" or "gee, what a shame"
To girls like me, they say all the same.
But I'm not the same when it comes to the game
Its my heart, its my life... I guess it's a cryin' shame...

The letter said "Come back next year and show us your stuff!
But we regret to tell you...
That you weren't good enough..."

It had felt, that night, like a part of me died
I was dazed, I was numb, in the end I just cried.

I tried to speak words
So those around me would understand
But they never will and never can
Its nothing words can say
But it haunts me every day

There's nowhere for me to really begin
I just know there's no place to be accepted again
In "Sudden Impact" I'm an outcast
In AcDec, I'm lost
In the Drill team, I'm nobody
In the Anime Club, I'm just the boss

On the team, it was family
it was the good times and bad
It was the practices and suicides,
And the experience we had

But now I am numb...
With still, a love for the sport
But until further notice
I died on that court...
