Failure

Would someone please tell me
Why I'm watching all the people
Who I grew up with
Fail or falling now
Fake

Favors were given
Apt and opportune
They couldn't circumvent
My ineptitude

Fake
Thief of a life
Sleeping with the light on

Fake
Thief with a lie
Acting so strong
But sleeps at night
With the light on

Sleep well tonight
Sleep well now
Sleep well tonight
Sleep well child
Hope
You'll sleep at night

Failure
