When All Else Fails It Fails

Whatever Lies Will Help You Rest - The Ataris

While Kansas city sleeps

Cloaked in the twilight of this valley

At this church cross standing

Roadside from a tree

I keep driving to the most desolate seclusions

My blackest secrets still imprison me

And why don't we say what we really feel

Whenever things are at their best

Whatever lies will help you rest

Whenever things are at their best

Why do we wait for it to fall apart

Fall apart

Welcome to the after-taste

Of cheap wine and bad decisions

My heart trembles in this morning prayer

I can't turn my eyes

From this inner most seductions

But still somehow you found me there

And why don't we say what we really feel

Whenever things are at their best

Whatever lies will help you rest

Whenever things are at their best

Why do we wait for it to fall apart

It's my mistake to say

I'm not the world safest bet

I've never been too good at being good

And its probably sad to say

Whenever things are at their best

Whatever lies will help you rest

Whenever things are at their best

Why do we wait for it to fall apart

Why do we wait for it to fall apart
