Persistance Award Lyrics

Child Bite Persistance Award

[Verse 1]
I take no pride in a persistence award
I take no pride
I take no pride
A flawed logic
A fool's pledge
You found your love and then you begged it to kill
I take no pride in a persistence award
I take no pride
I take no pride

[Verse 2]
There will be no ceremony
No lesson learned
Until they take you away
You found your dream, it is yours and yours alone
There will be no second chances
No improvement
Until they take you away

[Chorus]
You build your own monument
And you make it over and over and over and over
The lord of the repeated mistake

[Bridge]
Nothing's sacred
Ego endures
Self-serving effigy, waste of a life but still ego endures
Nothing's sacred
Ego endures
Self-serving effigy, waste of a life but still ego endures

[Chorus]
Build, you build your own monument
And you make it over and over and over and over
The lord of the repeated mistake
Takes his pride in a persistence award
I take no pride in a persistence award
I take no pride
Yet still I persist
