  • "Born To Fail" comes from Dance Gavin Dance's new album 'Afterburner' - out now! Pre-order/stream here: riserecords.lnk.to/afterburner
    LYRICS
    Only bangers from now on
    Only angry mental moans
    You fool I'm rich
    Splattered the bag
    Emptied the crypt
    You fool I'm rich
    Flap like a flag
    Scripted to flip
    How long could you keep up with all of it?
    Before you jacked too many licks and caught something you couldn’t kick?
    It’s no surprise you came and begged me for a second chance
    Pathetic hat in hand
    Now that I’m in demand
    “Give me substance give me something”
    This is the song you wish you’d wrote
    Before you proved to the world you’re a fucking joke
    Before you had your chance and fucking choked
    Before you tried to do me over
    Honestly
    You’ve always known I’d prevail
    It’s biology
    And you were born to fail
    Facts
    Just say it
    No you don't need to know
    Feels
    Display them
    Everyone's the goat
    Now I’m around the world shredding for a full ovation
    And you can trash my reputation
    As you enjoy your long vacation
    Ditch it fist bastard
    Cancel all your fans
    They're passed out in the pasture
    Sucking up the spam
    You look just like a person
    But missing all the man
    When life becomes a burden
    Just pull a fucking scam
    Goddamn
    You were born to fail

There was the laptop thinh and he's also been a mega douche lately with the controversy stuff going on with his gf so I wouldn't be surprised if the band tries to distance themselves from his name. Who knows though. We all love how close DGD is with all their ex-bandmembers so I hope everything's good regardless

      He got kicked out for auditioning for a spot in a Saosin.
      Quote: "For the record, I didn’t quit Tides Of Man. I expressed interest in pursuing the open spot in Saosin to the guys in Tides. The reactions were mixed, and I got kicked out of the band. They didn’t want a singer/leader to be in the band with that kind of doubt in his mind. Though I don’t like it, I respect their decision. In a more perfect world I would have had full trust and support from my friends in Tides and would’ve been able to pursue the open spot in Saosin, and possibly stay in both bands (this all would depend on whether it even worked out with Saosin in the first place)."
