What exactly is your mission in life
all of me is frozen, as you draw me closer to failure
I've tried over and over to reach my climax
yet, you left me awake, frozen and numb
Breathing heavily for breakthrough
through the hurdles of life
I'm artically emotionless
a cryogenic failure
For every time I strive for success
you knock and shut the door off my face
I knew you to be a wave
a wave that obstruct ones journey
But is success too profound to be found
because this failure won't stop discomforting me
in the presence of failure
It irks to feel so dead while alive.
