The Best |
| And you respect what I’m doing but you just can’t stand me now |
| And I’ll stop the screaming if you put something in my mouth |
| My mouth |
| My mouth is dry for you |
| You paint a pretty picture, I put my fist right through |
| My words are turning circles in the back of you |
| And I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| And you stay up forever just praying your love won’t last |
| But you pop up whenever my head’s light enough to laugh |
| And I push past the others to see who can match my stride |
| My stride |
| My stride is wide for you |
| I push on through, my heels propel me faster still |
| You say that I’m a nightmare, what does that make you? |
| And I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could |
| On my way, I’m on way |
| All that looking caught me off |
| My gaze is strong and straight |
| But my mind’s half glazed |
| You get all settled |
| But my trip’s half paid for |
| My trip’s half paid for |
| My trip’s half paid for |
| My trip’s half paid for |
| And I know it sounds better when the right words are sticking me down |
| And you respect what I’m doing but you just can’t stand me now |
| And I’ll stop the screaming if you put something in my mouth |
| My mouth |
| My mouth is dry for you |
| You paint a pretty picture, I put my fist right through |
| My words are turning circles in the back of you |
| And I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
| I did the best that I could, babe |
