[Tokyo Police Club - Ready to Win - Acoustic lyrics]
I fucked up so much I
Can't keep track anymore
I fucked up on girls, I fucked up on songs
I fucked up on my sister, my dad, and my mom
I fucked up on everyone, I fucked up on me
I fucked up with money and man
Nothing is free i fucked up on Letterman
I fucked up on stage
I fucked up on time and I fucked up too late
But now, I am ready to win
I stand on a river, I stand on a stage
Hoping for glory, or maybe today
'Cause it's all a mistake
And a beautiful mess
Like your next door neighbor when
You saw him undress
And I'll do it forever, do nothing but fail
A student of error can only prevail
Cause learning is trying and trying is hard
When it feels like falling
Will shatter your heart
But now, I am ready to win
Yeah, now, I am ready
So turn on the house lights
Turn to your left
Shake hands with someone that
You shoulda forget
And tell them they're great
Tell them they're splendid
No matter how all of their fuckups have ended
Tell them they're free from whatever happened
From all of the haters who
Need someone to slap them
Just go and fuck up, fuck up fucking up
Nothing but fucking up, never e-fucking nough
And then you'll be strong
And then you'll be fearless
Cause you've done it all and
Your tear ducts are tearless
Then you'll remember
There's dream in your heart
And a fire in your head
And permission to start
And from out of the silence
You will hear your voice
Like a big fucking siren and
You won't have a choice
And you will stand up, caution to the wind
And you will scream out that
You are ready to win are you ready to win?
I'm ready i'm ready
Cause everyone's weak and everyone's strong
And everyone's smart but usually wrong
And Rome wasn't built on a fucking cliché
And I love you all in the best fucking way
Fuck up like a pro, fuck up like a saint
Fuck up for the terrified people who ain't
Because the good things are hard and
The hard things are good
You know I'd fuck up for you if I could
But now, you are ready to win
Yeah now you are ready to win
Oh, baby now, you are ready to win
And I'm ready
