Demon Hunter - I Will Fail You

[@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."

[@nathacker]

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 has some of the most relatable and heavy lyrics. While most Christian bands only want to talk about the light stuff, they talk about the struggles we face. God bless you guys.

[@brandenbizelli6332]

I totally agree they are literally my favorite band of all time, and they don’t flame there music like “look guys we’re Christian if you’re not we hate you” they’re kinda like we’re all people let’s just relate with our struggles.

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 KZbin 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.

[@markoliver8914]

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.

[@frankliqerish3951]

you should really try Thrice

[@Tygineer]

+Mark Oliver theres nothing wrong with it openly expressing its beliefs. and its definitely more powerful in a Christians point of view.

[@markoliver8914]

Tygineer I apologize if it sounded like I meant that open expression of one's belief is wrong, as I certainly did not mean for my comment to. I simply meant that I enjoy the fact that certain bands like Demon Hunter are capable of expressing their belief while not excluding those who do not belong to the same belief.

[@frankliqerish3951]

Mark Oliver if you want a group that is christian and is extremely talented listen to Thrice. They range from hard rock, to hardcore post punk, to soft gentle music you can relax to. Seriously look them up

[@shyguyvxv8450]

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.

[@shyguyvxv8450]

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.

My favorite video of theirs ever. Being a believer and struggling with sin, I get it!

[@vaznecrotic5238]

I absolutely love this song. The videos simplicity is perfect and doesn't steal from the emotion of the song.

[@jayroxx2580]

These guys get better every time I listen to them.. Through thousands of songs, and they are always some of the best.. Much respect, dudes..

[@huniepanda7759]

Ryan Clark is amazing, God bless Demon Hunter their songs calm me when i am sad or upset.I really Love this band.

[@xeizael2034]

Having grown up with family constantly telling me I'll never be anything. No one will ever want me. All I do is mess everything. "I will fail you" has become a default thought in my head for so long. Past 8 years ive been working on that. And its not easy. But this song just reminds me to keep going.

[@6hypnone]

Your fam has def failed you. Def keep going!

[@xeizael2034]

@@6hypnone I am. Having my own daughter helped me a lot. Ive done everything in my power to be better for her so she wouldn't feel the same.

[@6hypnone]

@@xeizael2034 I have a friend who's grown up with the same message with a very dysfunctional family. It's a daily struggle for him. Therapy has been helping. But it's like a hardwired message. Just keep at it and KNOW that it IS NOT TRUE! 💜💜💜

Has a similar sound to "Dead Flowers". Love it!!!

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

[@yinkohazama1727]

I hope to be loved one day. No one seems to care anymore. Im nothing but a shadow that people ignore or hate. Iv done nothing good but fail. Sometimes i feel life isnt worth it i dont know anymore

[@ethanavila3919]

Finally at 5 million views, this is one of Demon Hunter's greatest songs period.

[@Soopcan42]

Never has a music video hit me as hard as this one has. Lost in the shadow of an Endless grace relentless my reign is unbound, in dis-abandon I will devastate Dismember till agony's found. I cant describe how much that means to me and applies to my life. Ryan gets it.

[@reedawg187]

Well some people are lucky like you and some of us are still lost .. Walking in the dark backwards blindfolded..hopeless but still tryna fight.. But sometimes a few of us have learned to live with darkness ... No sunny days for us .. You should be blessed

[@Soopcan42]

Its not about bad things happing to me. Its about how I fail God on the daily........ judge some more man.

[@isaacfrazier3226]

***** The light comes in Christ. This world is dark, and we are creatures living in the dark. But we were not born for the night, we were born for the day, we are creatures of light, because we were made to dance in the light and life of the Lord our God. 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.

[@isaacfrazier3226]

Metal Never Dies! It causes us pain to fail our creator, and our Christ. It should. But remember that the pain, and the failure are temporary. It is our duty to let our lives serve the Lord, so we may be made perfect as He wills for us to be, as he always willed for us to be.

[@joanx9722]

Absolutely the best way to spend a Friday night. My own personal escape from the reality of my life ❤️and the video is absolutely incredible...two thumbs up

[@KevinQualls]

Agreed, Joan😊👍

[@justintrammell9109]

Most of christian rock deals with the light and the niceties of this life. Demon hunter is one of the only ones i know that deal with the deep brokeness of this world. I greatly appreciate it and if you are/were a metal kid like me there is an alternative oit there

[@michaelstephens5730]

Such an AMAZING song..probably my most favorite of this band.. It hits hard to.. Either by the legit meaning of this song or that there's no need to please anyone because at some point u will fail they're expectations

[@Demigodking]

The song as explained by Clark is about the scrutiny that a band like theres will get if others don think they are "holy" enough and the truth is were all in need of perpetual forgiveness as he says is a defining theme of what the band has always been about.

[@Relexxii]

This is such a beautiful, well written song.

[@hugobrandao1788]

Eu Vou Falhar Com Você Estas palavras calmas me induzem, Retornando Elas continuam voltando. Em pensamentos superficiais e recortes vazios Desarmam me. Não tenho vontade de atacar Embora a tristeza e medo possam deixar você hoje Eu vou falhar com você Disso eu tenho certeza Vou lhe lembrar da dor para sempre E quando meus pecados forem apenas uma memória Quando a fé for restaurada Eu vou falhar com você Completamente Perdido na sombra de uma graça infinita Implacável Meu reino é desatado Neste abandono vou devastar Desmembrar Até a agonia ser encontrada Eu sei que eles caem sobre mim Eu os sinto bem do outro lado da minha porta

[@EshleyGlixinski]

Ryan's voice is simply amazing.

[@szewc0svd]

I'm not a man of faith, never was nor ever will be, it is not a part of me. I struggled with life adversities years ago, marched into dark depressing place of unpleasant time. In that time I found this song, and then it was just another song but it stuck with me for a decade. Years later, while I'm still as far from faith as were before, truth imbued in this song became part of something I treat like a prayer. Thing that reminds me I'm but a human, weakness nad failure is part of me that I need to accept as a part of but always try not give reigns to.

[@firewindnasgool3780]

My favorite song of all time.

[@noesosa4073]

I Think Demon Hunter has the right idea about lyrics , In this day and age a lot of artist get away with lyrics that have little to no meaning (crappy lyrics dumb even) , but Demon Hunter songs are always meaningful that is why I appreciate them as an artist (religion aside).

[@joselopez77]

Never in my mind have I ever thought how we as humans have this ability to see ourselves as it is broken to the core. Hearing this song brings it to reality that the inner man that is wasting away the will fail to the end of his or her life. We were born depraved and certainly beyond measure. The fact that we have a choice to let these real demonic realm influence us is our choice. We are broken and need to have that spiritual epiphany and ultimately have a choice to continue to let these demons go or never realize the severity of our condition as a human being. No matter how much we try we will fail everyone one way or another even the God of Jacob, Isaac and Moses. The true reality is we have the choice to believe either we have a hope and the only One who will see you through is the Lord Jesus Christ. We all have a choice and ultimately will certainly see the outcome when we die physically. Ephesians 4:7 [7]But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift.

[Instrumental] [Chorus] 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 [Chorus - Outro] 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

Kratom Gaming beautiful verse. Its good to see so many people strong In the word. You must always dawn the sword of the armor of God. Although I'm not good at mesmerizing verses In the bible, I'm better at remembering facts about certain things In the bible. But I Love how you show your faith, God bless. One last thing If you ever need someone to talk too, I'm always here. I really want a christian friend to talk about life, or really just about faith. So please If you read this, at least respond. I understand if you don't want to be friends, that's understandably. But please at least tell me that, so I don't get my hopes up. Any way. I Love the Love you have for the LORD, always stay strong In that God bless.

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.

[@bdog2225]

Not sure if you this bands reads any comments but I listened to this song before I left after being cheated on thrown underneath a bus with no money and a 3 year old daughter at the time tried to raise a family and she changed her mind homeless sleeping in my truck and pan handled to get from state to state ! This song changed my life but I made the choice because I was right all along !

It is super ironic that the band that brought me to metal is a christian band, now that I am atheist. However, Demon Hunter never ceases to amaze me. Ryan Clark has the most amazing vocals of any artist I can think of
