Password lock on Samsung Galaxy S5, I'm locked out?

This is so frustrating! I took off the fingerprint scanner so that I can get into my phone easier and did a passcode lock instead. I was having a hard time with my fingerprint scanner, so I kept having to type in my alternate password. So I changed my lock screen settings, and just seconds after setting the new passcode lock (to what my alternate password was for the fingerprint scanner which always let me in), my phone won't let me in with the password I set. Even though I personally set it up just seconds before and I know exactly what I set it to, I did all the passwords that I possibly could have set it to, none worked. I am seriously locked out of MY OWN phone. This phone is brand new, less than a month old. I remember my previous s3 let me sign in with google after a certain amount of times but my s5 doesn't even let me do that. What do I do? Is there a way I can bypass it and then take it off in settings? The picture shows the message that pops up. After 35 times, I've finally given up…
