It's Alright To Fail
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Out on the corner you look so pale
Your ghost is wandering home
But oh, baby, it's alright to fail
Your tongue is twisted
Your teeth are nails
They drove your voice in your throat
But oh, baby, it's alright to fail
Tell me, don't leave
Tell me, tell me
Your heart is beating
I hear it pound
If you've got something to say
Oh, baby, please don't let me down
Tell me, don't leave
Tell me, tell me
The night is coming
I hear the wail of people crying alone
But oh, baby, it's alright to fail
Oh, baby, it's alright to fail
