Artist/Band: Matthew Good
Lyrics for Song: 99percent Of Us Is Failure
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Matthew Good



I know that it's bad

That it's the kind that they can't operate on

And I know it's real slow, honey

Painful and real slow

Styrofoam coffee cups

And bagged drugs that never work enough

And I know its real slow, honey

Painful and real slow



When we were young

And hit like hammers

I'd write the nails in your hands

But when 99% of us is failure

There's no going back



And I know its real slow, honey

Painful and real slow



Blackbird come the break of dawn

The TV's on, I turn it off

Walk outside, get in the car

Stare at the wheel then fall apart



I get it all the time

Bright eyes to bat and hide behind

But I know they're just for show, honey

Painful and just for show

Black rooms to babysit

White halls to pace and wait for it

And I know it's too slow, honey

Painful and real slow



When we were young

And hit like hammers

I'd write the nails in your hands

When 99% of us is failure

There's no coming back



And I know its real slow, honey

Painful and real slow



Blackbird come the break of day

You swallow the shit that people say

Walk outside look at the sky

Ask it to fall or tell you why
