Joel Plaskett - My Failing Health lyrics
[Joel Plaskett - My Failing Health lyrics]
Completely devoid of any skills whatsoever
Obsessing on details
The time and the weather
To all those who love me
You'll receive a card
I’m writing you all from the back of the yard
The only one to be true to is yourself
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
A complex arrangement of wires and arteries
Shocking and bleeding at all of the parties
An anonymous letter says don’t
Confuse the issue
Just because we love you does
Not mean we miss you
But we misuse the best parts of ourselves
Or we conveniently leave them to
Rot on the shelves
And it's cold under the quilt
The ice cold memories of resentment and guilt
And we store them all on the
First floor by the front door
In a house that I built with my bare hands
In a time when we used to make plans
To go sailing down the Rio Grande
The only one to be true to is yourself
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Obsessing on details
The time and the weather
To all those who love me
You'll receive a card
I’m writing you all from the back of the yard
The only one to be true to is yourself
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
A complex arrangement of wires and arteries
Shocking and bleeding at all of the parties
An anonymous letter says don’t
Confuse the issue
Just because we love you does
Not mean we miss you
But we misuse the best parts of ourselves
Or we conveniently leave them to
Rot on the shelves
And it's cold under the quilt
The ice cold memories of resentment and guilt
And we store them all on the
First floor by the front door
In a house that I built with my bare hands
In a time when we used to make plans
To go sailing down the Rio Grande
The only one to be true to is yourself
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
Who'll raise a glass to my failing health
