Don't play it on the piano for a week. Instead SING it and practice away from the piano the fingerings that make you frustrated. So often my adults will get frustrated at playing but still "digest" the music by other ways, when they do this they can come back playing the song better even though they didn't actually touch the piano. It's okay to say let's move on and come back to this next month. You haven't failed the piece just isn't clicking yet, and almost always there are other pieces that will work the same problems and may be more enjoyable.
