How Good Do I Have To Be - Liset Alea

Woke up with no hope today

Piled underneath bills left to pay

I’m a crossword puzzle blank

I’m a doorbell buzzing

Open up I know you’re there

I’ve seen you in your under-

Where are you

I can’t see

You’re scaring the hell out of me

I know you’re not the one

Who’s gonna make me better

I know and it’s killing me

So make friends, find a job and

Do something you’re proud of

How good do I have to be?

You should always dress to impress

Do much better than your best

How good to I have to be?

You know it makes me feel so useless

How good do I have to be?

Am I breaking myself apart

And taking this all too hard

I think of all the shoes I’ve worn

Some like a boy some like a whore

My soul is sighing deep

It’s been asleep

The winter waiting for the spring

It won’t come easily

And it’s scaring the hell out of me

I’ve been so scared to fall

Will it make it better?

I don’t know what to do

Just make friends, find a job and

Do something you’re proud of

How good do I have to be?

You should always dress to impress

Do much better than your best

How good to I have to be?

You know it makes me feel so tired

I can’t even get some sleep

You know it makes me feel so useless

How good do I have to be?

I’ve been so scared to fall

Will it make it better?

I just don’t know what to do

How can you?

Well make friends, find a job and

Do something you’re proud of

How good do I have to be?

You should always dress to impress

Do much better than your best

How good to I have to be?

You know it makes me feel so tired

I can’t even get some sleep

You know it makes me feel so useless

How good do I have to be?

How good do I have to be?

How good do I have to be?
