I say things I don't want to say
I do things I don't wanna do
I talk mean to you
But if I think
I just might get something out of this
My parents taught me to learn when I miss
Just do your best
Just do your best
It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far
But when I drink
I hear things that aren't really there
I feel things when I shouldn't really care
Have fist fights with the air
But if I think about someone besides myself
I lived through the silver and the bell
With something to tell
Just do your best
It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far
But when I drink
I spend the next morning in a haze
But we only get so many days
Now I have one less
Just do your best
It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far
Oh, at least a little better than I've been so far
When I drink I say things I don't want to say I do things I don't wanna do I talk mean to you But if I think I just might get something out of this My parents taught me to learn when I miss Just do your best Just do your best It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be At least a little better than I've been so far But when I drink I hear things that aren't really there I feel things when I shouldn't really care Have fist fights with the air But if I think about someone besides myself I lived through the silver and the bell With something to tell Just do your best It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be At least a little better than I've been so far But when I drink I spend the next morning in a haze But we only get so many days Now I have one less Just do your best It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be At least a little better than I've been so far Oh, at least a little better than I've been so far Explain Request ×
