Faith No More - A small victory lyrics

The higher I gain
Spread out on the nightstand
The spirit of team
Salvation is another chance
A sore loser
Yelling with my mouth shut
A cracking portrait
The fondling of trophies
The null of losing
Can you afford that luxury?
A sore winner
But I’ll just keep my mouth shut

It shouldn’t bother me - no
But it does!

The small victories
The cankers and medallions
The little nothings
They keep me thinking that someday
I might beat you
But I’ll just keep my mouth shut

It shouldn’t bother me - no
But it does!

If I speak at one constant volume
At one constant pitch
At one constant rhythm
Right into your ear
You stïll won’t hear...
