Clock Opera Fail Better
When you think the world is turning
At a different speed to you
And you write another list
Of things you'll probably never do
And you feel your dreams divided
By the median and mean
Your imagination drying
From a river to a stream
No matter, try again
Fail again, fail better
Everything is coming good
We're going our own way
No matter, try again
Fail again, fail better
Heaven is never closer
Never further away
And so on and on we go
Like a spinning barber's pole
Rising up on a shepherd's tone
Still together, still alone
We will walk across the embers
We will walk across the coals
We will walk the road from limbo
In recursion, on parole
No matter, try again
Fail again, fail better
Heaven is never closer
Never further away
No matter, try again
Fail again, fail better
Everything is coming good
Oh darlin' just you wait
Day breaker, rain maker
Boneshaker ever more
Keep failing main sailing
Myth making ever more
