When failure comes to call

Intro

Watched you rise, knew you would fall.

Knew this day would come.

Picked you up just to knock you down.

Saw the setting sun.

Verse

Thunder is calling from the skies.

A teardrop falls to earth.

Failure is laughing in the crowd.

Asks you what fame is worth.

Pre chorus

Perhaps some silver perhaps some gold.

Perhaps you can sell your soul.

Chorus

When something rises it must fall,

That’s when failure comes to call.

That’s when failure comes to call.

Verse

Danger is laughing takes your hand.

A stranger you know well.

Failure is looking in your eyes.

Asks what have you to sell?

Pre chorus

Perhaps some silver perhaps some gold.

Perhaps you can sell your soul.

Chorus

When something rises it must fall,

That’s when failure comes to call.

That’s when failure comes to call.

Outro

Watched you rise, knew you would fall.

Knew this day would come.

Picked you up just to knock you down.

Saw the setting sun.

For all who would rise
  above it all
Only humility 
  breaks the fall... ?

Honestly... "When failure comes to call" seems a bit awkward to me. I was just trying to figure out another way to say it...

You succeed ,you falter, you fall.

You arise or lose it all.

Just playing with it.  Kind of a lot, but just...noodling.

When failure comes to call

Intro

I watched you rise, and knew you'd fall.

I sadly saw this day would come.

They picked you up just to knock you down.

As certain as the setting sun.

Verse

Thunder calls from the skies.

Teardrops fall to earth.

Failure laughs too loud at you,

Asks you what fame is worth.

Pre chorus

Worth some silver or some gold.

Perhaps you can still sell your soul.

Chorus

When something rises it must fall,

And that’s when failure comes to call.

When failure comes to call.

Verse

Laughing, Danger takes your hand.

Was a stranger you know well.

Failure looks into your eyes.

Asking what have you to sell?

Pre chorus

Have no silver, have no gold.

Perhaps you can still sell your soul.

Chorus

When something rises it must fall,

And that’s when failure comes to call.

When failure comes to call.

Outro

I watched you rise, and knew you'd fall.

I sadly saw this day would come.

They picked you up just to knock you down.

As certain as the setting sun.
