Lyrics for Laffitte Don't Fail Me Now

Back in that model evironment For taking shots in the knees For planning out your retirement in your thirties There is no way back from this one but Oughta wake up and see And you know its the best it could be Oh no, I want to know Are you honest with anyone? Oh tell me, don't tell yourself Are you ever honest with anyone? The aftermath, the promotion It's time to take the trash out And redefining what you are Redefining what you're about You can't explain the attraction when Everything gets so far away Using class to abstraction Do it everyday Now all I, I want to know Are you ever honest with anyone? All that I, I want to know Are you honest with anyone? No no The aftermath, the promotion It's time to take the trash out And redefining what you are Redefining what you're about But an expression is anything You can reduce to a form Can still make you feel so wiped out For long Oh no no, c'mon tell me now Are you honest with anyone? All that I, I want to know Are you ever honest with anyone? And I say, no no Are you honest with anyone? How does it feel to go home And not be honest with anyone?
