Out on the corner you look so palenYour ghost is wandering homenBut oh, baby, it's alright to failnnYour tongue is twistednYour teeth are nailsnThey drove your voice in your throatnBut oh, baby, it's alright to failnnTell me, don't leavenTell me, tell mennYour heart is beatingnI hear it poundnIf you've got something to saynOh, baby, please don't let me downnnTell me, don't leavenTell me, tell mennThe night is comingnI hear the wail of people crying alonenBut oh, baby, it's alright to failnOh, baby, it's alright to fail
