Lyrics Failure - Juliana Hatfield

Failure

standing in the yard
counting the leaves
waiting for a lightning bolt
to bring me to my knees
will i be let down
by the sunshine and the earth and the clouds
lying on the couch
with a tabloid magazine
how to keep the dream the alive
gotta do it for the money
if i say it a hundred times
can i learn to believe the lie
don’t believe in promises
it won’t happen unless it does
don’t believe in miracles
some problems cannot be solved
shooting blades of grass
shadows move so fast
all the things i thought i knew
now where do i go and what do i do
failure failure failure failure failure
