Failures Lyrics by Tyler Trowbridge

Too Scared to Try

2023

Verse 1:

When I lay down to sleep, my mind wanders off

To conversations in the past, where I said something wrong

I try to rectify the words, with what I meant to say

These moments keep me up at night, I can’t speak them away



My thoughts move on to darker things as I twist and turn in bed

The sheets begin to smother me while filling me with dread

I’m not sure what my dreams will bring, not sure where they will gooo

Death comes to us eventually, like spring comes to the snow



The thought of dеath expands into a nightmare of despair

Whеre I’m walking on the moon and struggling for air

My consciousness subsides, as the oxygen depletes

My body floats out into space, as the life in it retreats



Chorus 1:

So I keep taking these supplements to keep these thoughts at bay

And using their ingredients to brighten up my day

I’m ok with all the knowledge that I have yet to knooooow

I’ve made peace with all my failures cause they leave me room to grow



Verse 2:

Awake to my alarm clock and pour the coffee in my cup

To survive the commute to work, I need a pick me up

Drink even more when I get there, so I don’t fall asleep

It’s the only way I know how to support my family



Feel like zombie stuck on a hamster wheel

With nothing but self-pity, and only pain to feel

The job consists of emails, and staring through a screen

To help the wealthy company, make even more money



Chorus 2:

So I keep taking these supplements to keep these thoughts at bay

And using their ingredients to brighten up my day

I’m ok with all the money that I have yet to earn

I’ve made peace with all my failures cause they leave me room to learn



So on days when I’m down and out, and need a hit of dopamine

I pick up my guitar and start to write a song to sing

I write the words and soon they’ll turn, into a melody

It seems to be the only thing that truly brings me peace
