Could do Better 02:32
lyrics
buy track
is this the best they can do? the best of a bad lot you gotta move on when it’s all you’ve got is this the best you can do? well i’ve been the other side what do they say about a fall and pride? no kind words or soft soap for you cos you could do better and if the best you can do is still not good enough a lesson is learnt and life is tough when you’re hanging on and all your strength has gone hang on some more it won’t be long

staring out the same old window reflecting pain on pane reach out across the table wheels coming off again reliving one more dream of you make up excuses i can use to end the night i guess i got it right all i’ll ever want is here with me tonight when you want to talk i’ll share with you tonight that’s all i’ll ever ask of you tonight six hours down and counting i’m feeling wide awake i count the stars as day breaks too many words to take

first day back and all seems well it’s smiles and beers but who can tell they try to understand first day back you look ahead all you see is a warm bed it’s gravy from now on back in the world and i’ll see you on the other side first day back you settle in mundane life is wearing thin you need to take it slow first day back the cracks appear you’re still there and not quite here take a minute to explain first day back a wounded soul can swallow their heart and lose control will help be there to call? don’t wash your hands don’t shake your head don’t sleep soundly in your bed hear about it on the news

if you wake up now you’ll hit the ground like falling from a 40 storey floor if you try too hard to open up then your body fails like a hundred times before i know that something isn’t everything but it’s better than the dish served up so far walk in the woods the trees are everything the sun has trapped you like a beetle in a jar

i know that you know it’s no surprise at all they chop away at everything falling with statues lay crushed upon the floor the ugly suits are out the door why can’t everybody see we’re being smothered by the greed? turning full circle rewriting history they burn your eyes for every sin no easy answers we have no time to think the ugly suits grab everything

first met when at school had a kid played it cool love conquers all in time for a fall time passed smiles fade away worry lines from bills to pay fists start to fly make up on one eye he’s no good for you people like it cos he plays the fool he’s no good for you fell apart pushed downstairs cheap booze doesn’t care where there’s a will pint glass to fill panic button nuisance calls once loved twice a fool won’t take him back she needs to pack
