    Story Behind the Song
    i failed a test and wrote this song. it sat on the back burner for a while and i wanted to make this track all radiohead-like and artrockish. but the track sounded TERRIBLE!!! so i recorded it with just guitar/vocals and then i gradually began throwing in keyboard effects. that is, all keyboard effects that i really wanted to use in other songs that didnt fit in. notice that there are couple different tracks with only lasers on it. lasers=gooder! also, notice that a new effect comes in every 4 measures.

    Lyrics
    i guess my best wasnt good enough

    i make a play for the golden gates
    i trip get lost along the way
    whats the point of trying when youre destined to fail
    tripping and falling over thin air

    i guess my best wasnt good enough

    i guess this means that I should concede
    a word aligned with failure but rhymes with succeed
    tell my God whats the big idea
    messing with me like this
