Failure - Pillowhead Lyrics






I sprained my will lying in bed
Counting the pores across my skin
I'm so ashamed to love no one
My ego's bent and my pride's undone

I'll spend the night with my pillowhead girl
We never fight or say a word
I'll spend my life with my pillowhead girl
She is my lovely faceless queen

I gave up hope in finding you
I've got a friend I've grown used to
I'm so ashamed to love no one
My ego's bent and my pride's undone

I'll spend the night with my pillowhead girl
We never fight or say a word
I'll spend my life with my pillowhead girl
She is my lovely faceless queen
I'll spend the night wasting away

  13. m.... ....

    all i hear is the jimmy neutron song in the intro

  14. a.... ....

    anyone else also imagines different drum details on this song?

  15. J.... E....

    All of you that have uploaded Failure songs,God Bless You! It's disgusting that they are so unknown.

  16. J.... D....

    great song. I just jizzed.

  17. M.... ....

    Fucking better than Nirvana

    M.... ....

    Fucking 100 hundred times, Nirvana is still cool though.

    M.... ....

    Fuck yeah it is!

  18. M.... S....

    I'll spend the night with my waifu-chan~
    We never fight or say a word
    I'll spend my life
    With my waifu-chan~
    She is the kawaii anime-faced queen.

  19. A.... o....

    Can't wait to see them in May.  :D

  20. i.... ....

    I don't think this is a literal song, I think it's about a man who is so disconnected from society that he cannot possibly find a woman that will make him happy. He'd prefer to have an imaginary girlfriend. Just a theory, probably more a reflection of myself than the truth of the song but oh well.

    i.... ....

    Not a theory. That's definitely what this song is about.

    i.... ....

    iiParker so a waifu 😂

    i.... ....

    Uh it's about heroin. Almost all there songs are. Especially Fantastic Planet

  21. i.... ....

    Had this on repeat for about an hour

  22. L.... ....

    Love the beat and drumming. Great chorus, too.

  23. o.... ....

    i wish i didnt have to visit another website for the lyrics every time i hear a new song by these guys. lol

  24. g.... ....

    My favorite Failure song changes daily. Today it is PILLOWHEAD!!!!!!!!!!!

  25. f.... ....

    @Inutero98541 odd, but in Japan there is a fetish of older mean who have bodypillows who have anime characters on them..and they take it everwhere they go.

    f.... ....

    fasttrackme that was before, now everyone knows and the weaboos use it as a meme

  26. B.... M....

    @TheBadgerslayer Troy never wrote anything for Failure, he just toured with them during Fantastic Planet. Most of Failure's writing comes strictly from Ken Andrews and Greg Edwards.

  27. a.... ....

    @Kannebas Bands without obscure musical knowledge.

  28. T.... M....

    oddly this whole album reminds me of driving to my grandmas house........

  29. N.... ....

    Sounds just like Nirvana

  30. s.... ....

    Nirvana = Failure = Every good band

  31. N.... ....

    @Kannebas You have just become my new best friend.

  32. D.... S....

    i remember hearing this when i was a kid and loving it.. thinking it was about a man with my pillow for a head

  33. A.... ....

    @Kannebas you're right, i must have entirely forgotten at the time.

  34. D.... P....

    that snare should go to a support group for the abused.

  35. K.... ....

    I think it sounds more like Killing Joke, but so did Nirvana. Then again, what Gen-X band WASN'T influenced by Killing Joke?

  36. K.... ....

    No... Ken produced and engineered Fantastic Planet himself. Steve Albini produced Failure's eponymous first album in 1992. Nirvana got more famous and Kurt's death at the peak of their powers gave them mythic status, so everything in retrospect makes it look like everyone was ripping them off when it was actually the other way around.

  37. z.... ....

    @lmoses Agreed. I love Failure more than Nirvana too. With no relation to my previous comment, I just feel this is one of the weaker tracks on the album.

  38. A.... ....

    i checked the lyrics, and apparently, not only is it about a guy who pleases himself with a pillow, but also hurt his tool while doing it. XD

  39. A.... ....

    on top of that, the album was produced by Steve Albini

  40. A.... ....

    it's true, though Kens voice needs to be grittier, and less reverberating, more like shouting then completely singing

  41. n.... n....

    I don't know myself, But that would be extremely EXTREMELY odd. But most of this album is about the movie fantastic planet and opiates.

  42. T.... ....

    I'm not sure if this is true or not but I herd that the song is actually about a young man who has sexual relations with his pillow.

  43. S.... ....

    i just found this song through a bmx video by orchid called step on it here on pootube i'm very happy now ^^

  44. n.... n....

    This is why music sucks? What?
    Come down and then post a comment next time bro, maybe it'll make a bit more since :D

    Actually Ken was born in seattle.
