    Lyric explanation by vocalist Ryan Clark: "It can be easy to put people on a pedestal of unrealistic expectation. We often forget that every single one of us, no matter how seemingly perfect on the outside, is a broken individual. I've made it a point to be transparent about this in my own life through my lyrics. I never want to give the impression that I have it all figured out, or that every struggle lies behind me. It can be very freeing to understand that everyone, at some point, will fail. They will fail God, they will fail themselves, and they will fail you. Understanding grace and forgiveness is the only way to spare yourself the disappointment of the human condition."

      Clark explained the song's meaning: "'I Will Fail You' is about the scrutiny that a band like ours of tends falls under," he said. "No matter how many times we blatantly express our beliefs, there will always be someone ready to destroy their collection of Demon Hunter albums if they suspect we're not as 'holy' as they've managed to project. The obvious problem with this is that no one is truly holy, and we're all in need of perpetual forgiveness - a defining theme of what this band has been about from the beginning."

    Demon Hunter brought me back to Christ after many decades away. I hit a very low point in my life and wasn't sure I could keep going. I was at a crossroads and felt lost. This song kept popping up for me on UA-cam and I kept listening to it. I always dismissed DH as "that Christian metal band" but for the first time I really listened to the lyrics and it opened my mind and heart and I did something I hadn't done since I was a kid, pick up a Bible. That was three years ago and my life has changed for the better so much.

A worthless sinner who disobeys You and causes You sadness? Why would You ever have love for me? But yet He does. And it always makes me so joyful and ever so grateful to be reminded of that. I have so much love for this beautiful song and of course for my God and His Son who made all this possible.

      Jesus died on the cross for our sin, God gave his only son so you may sin, if you never committed sin, his death would be for nothing, if we didn't sin it would only mean God's sacrifice would be in vain, be grateful for your sin, it's what makes you human, be thankful for that unfathomably painful sacrifice, he did it for love of you. "Forgive them father, for they know not what they do" forgive yourself my brother, for you know not what you truly are.

    lyrics:
    These quiet words, they carry me away
    Returning
    They keep coming back
    In idle thoughts and hollow cutaways
    Disarm me
    No will to attack
    Though the sorrow and fear they may depart you today
    I will fail you
    Of that I'm sure
    I will remind you of the pain forevermore
    And when my sins are just a memory
    Faith restored
    I will fail you
    To the core
    Lost in the shadow of an endless grace
    Relentless
    My reign is unbound
    In this abandon I will devastate
    Dismember
    'Til agony's found
    Though the sorrow and fear they may depart you today
    I will fail you
    Of that I'm sure
    I will remind you of the pain forevermore
    And when my sins are just a memory
    Faith restored
    I will fail you
    To the core
    I know they prey upon me
    I feel them just beyond my
    door
    I will fail you
    Of that I'm sure
    I will remind you of the pain forevermore
    And when my sins are just a memory
    Faith restored
    I will fail you
    To the core
    I will fail you
    Of that I'm sure
    I will remind you of the pain forevermore
    And when my sins are just a memory
    Faith restored
    I will fail you

    I've always respected Demon Hunter for being able to write songs as a Christian band that don't turn non-Christians away. They don't jump up and down screaming "LOOK AT ME, I'M ABOUT GOD, WOO!" They're more subtle, and in my experience with music (as a musician), that's more powerful for both sides (in this case, people of the belief and people who aren't). It allows the demographic to look deeper into the lyrics and reach their own conclusions based on it, while simultaneously allowing those who aren't in the demographic to enjoy and reach their own interpretations based upon the song's feeling and messages. Wonderful work.

    So, this is what Ryan Clark, lead singer has to say about 'I Will Fail You':
    "It can be easy to put people on a pedestal of unrealistic expectation. We often forget that every single one of us, no matter how seemingly perfect on the outside, is a broken individual. I've made it a point to be transparent about this in my own life through my lyrics. I never want to give the impression that I have it all figured out, or that every struggle lies behind me.

    It's a miracle for me that I've found this song putting words together from songs with the same theme. A very difficult person in my life sent this song to me a while ago.

      Diana to this day I have a vague definition of that word nostalgia but God leaves nothing to chance. We are presented with a set of choices many different times on different subjects. Some we answer with wit and wisdom others we answer with mischief and disobedience and some we choose....not to make a choice. This Is where we are showered with mercy and grace as ppl who dare but heads with us challenge our resolve. Iron sharpens Iron. I really wish I could go back and make better choices on the one where I had a gut feeling were right but I put them off.

      Just as it says in the beginning of the comments by the band member. An explaination of this song. We as human beings fail not only God, but each other as well, and even our ownselves. tobeinhimalone
      - Lyric explanation by vocalist Ryan Clark: "It can be easy to put people on a pedestal of unrealistic expectation. We often forget that every single one of us, no matter how seemingly perfect on the outside, is a broken individual. I've made it a point to be transparent about this in my own life through my lyrics. I never want to give the impression that I have it all figured out, or that every struggle lies behind me. It can be very freeing to understand that everyone, at some point, will fail. They will fail God, they will fail themselves, and they will fail you. Understanding grace and forgiveness is the only way to spare yourself the disappointment of the human condition."

  • @shyguyvxv8450
    @shyguyvxv8450 9 років тому +113

    This song really speaks to me on how we too often we place artists, leaders, or even people in our lives up on a pedestal and start to think that we can just put our expectations on them and they have to live by them. It is especially prevalent in the Christian music scene and the Church. Because they claim Christianity as their faith and proudly proclaim it or try to teach it they should hold themselves to a higher standard but for us to try and force them to do so because we look up to them is wrong. In other ways we expect people in our lives to be exactly what we want them to be in a relationship and when they don't add up we get disappointed and hurt because of it. We all handle that hurt differently but in most cases it turns into anger or bitterness. In worst cases we do it to ourselves and when we don't live up those standards we become insecure and try to judge and tear down those who don't live up to our standards. Stop and realize that the people that let us down are human beings just like us and the one sure thing we can bet on is that somewhere down the road we will fail. Just as God loves us for who we are, He has called us to do the same for Him and others. Just as God has forgiven all of our trespasses, He has called us do the same for others. We must love God for who He is and through that love we grow and mature into the men and women God has called us to be. So I will strive daily to walk by faith and be an example of that love but do not place your faith in me but rather in God and Him alone. Because I will fail you of that I'm sure. I will remind you of the pain forevermore and when my sins are just a memory, faith restored. I will fail you to the core.

      Sorry for the length, but it was something that has been on my chest, and I wanted to share. Truth be told I am telling it to myself as much as anyone else who might need to hear it. As for the video my interpretation is that the hostage is us as fans. We often place artists up on a pedestal, especially in the Christian scene, and when they eventually fail to meet our expectations we tend to let it devastate us or we start casting stones trying to tear them down. We make ourselves so beholden to them, that when they do fall so do we.

We may stumble and fall, but if we turn to Him who made us, and the one who died to defeat the death and darkness so many years ago, we will find our way to the light, and when this darkness is just a memory, we will wonder at how short a wait it truly was, in the perspective of eternity.

    When people today says they are God just because of a simple achievement is a joke. We are just human.

    Beautiful song. Really put the way I've been feeling lately but struggling to describe into poetic words.

    Haven't listened to this in years. Thought it sounded cool and I understood theoretically what he was saying. Now, being a husband and a dad who's made some mistakes the words "when my sins are a memory and faith is restored, I will fail you to the core" hits hard.
