The Best Lyrics


Self Esteem The Best

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
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
