09. More Good Than Bad

Be Clean Again
by Heath McNease



 

More good than bad (bad)
More good than bad
More good than bad (bad, bad)
More good than bad
More good than bad (bad)
More good than bad
More good than bad (bad, bad)
More good than bad
More good than bad (bad)

I put on that Oasis
That 'Don't Look Back in Anger'
Yeah, that's the banger
I roll down the windows like every cliche
And I loudly proclaim it
Tell the ones that broke you to go in peace

I play that Sergeant Peppers
'She's Leaving Home' and I let her
Too proud to go and get her
I sing that falsetto like I was John Lennon
And think of her letters
They said 'P.S. Babe, go in peace'

I always been told
If you love it then you gotta let it go
If it comes back then it's meant to
If it don't return then it's bad for your soul
I always been told
Despite what we think we all know
There's more good than bad out here and
I think you're good for my soul
There's more good than bad out here and
I think you're good for my soul
There's more good than bad out here and
I think you're good for my soul

After that Oasis
It's that Mos Def 'Respiration'
With no hesitation
My chest heave 'gainst the flesh of the evening
While wrestlin' angels
Tell your demons to rest in peace

Then I sing that Leonard Cohen
Like I'm the one who wrote it
All my hallelujah's broken
So I collect them and stitch 'em together
And plead for atonement
Tell the ones you love most
To go in peace

I always believed
If you love it then you gotta let it leave
If it comes back then it's meant to
If it don't return, then it ain't meant to be
I always been told
Despite what the evidence shows
There's more good than bad out here and
I think I'm good for your soul
There's more good than bad out here and
I think I'm good for your soul
There's more good than bad out here and
I think I'm good for your soul

More good than bad
More good than bad (bad, bad)
More good than bad
More good than bad (bad, bad)
More good than bad
More good than bad (bad, bad)
More good than bad
More good than bad (bad)

Used to burn my bridges with a flame thrower
Now I turn the bridge and 'Say It Ain't So' up
'Cause I wrote to you after years of silence
Searching for something you may know of
When I say to put your lighters up
It's not cause it inspires us
It's to burn the list of people in our heads
Who lied to us and spited us

I think of 'Cotton' by the Mountain Goats
And rats that sink in cargo holds
And cars on old forgotten roads
And sorrys they could not compose
So I cope the way you build a bridge
With the cords that they suspend it with
Nine Inch Nails, cement, and bricks
And hope that at the end of this
I've made my peace

There's more good than bad out here and
I think you're good for my soul
There's more good than bad out here and
I think you're good for my soul
