About This Track
'Swallow' by Failure is a 1992 indie rock track from the album 'Comfort'. The lyrics cast a strained, panicky moment, with the speaker struggling to control their body while saying “Won’t he listen?” and repeating the plea as their vision blurs. Elsewhere, a recurring sense of urgency builds, as if the situation is deteriorating by the second. The title feels like a grim metaphor for trying to push discomfort down, even as it rises in waves.
"Swallow" is a track by Failure, from the album Comfort, released 14th September 1992. The track is 2:31 long. It's filed under Indie Rock. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about Failure.

Lyrics
Twisting slowly up the walk I wanna get this over quickly But my body is not doing What I thought I'd make it do The gun is getting slippery And my vision's getting blurry And I feel a certain panic Flowing through me in waves Won't he listen? Listen to me Won't he listen? Can't he see? Let me in I'm coming for mother Let me in Motherfucker
