FAILURE As recorded by the Kings Of Convenience (From the 2001 Album QUIET IS THE NEW LOUD) [Intro] [Verse 1] Using the Guardian as a shield To cover my thighs against the rain I do not mind about my hair [Verse 2] Your jacket may be waterproof But know in the moment you get home You’re gonna get those trousers changed [Chorus] Failure is always the best way to learn Retracing your steps until you know Have no fear your wounds will heal [Interlude] [Verse 3] I wish I could travel overground To where all you hear is water sounds Lush as the wind upon a tree [Verse 4] I wish I could travel overground To where all you hear is water sounds To capture and keep inside of me [Chorus] Failure is always the best way to learn Retracing your steps until you know Have no fear your wounds will heal Failure is always the best way to learn Retracing your steps until you know Have no fear your wounds will heal [Outro]
