You Had Me At My Best
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the corner of my living room lies the ring she threw behind
I can't bring myself to pick it up, you know she still might change her mind
Every morning around 6am the sun hits it just right
I'll spend another day in hell just waiting on the night
I see the way people look at me, I guess it's all over my face
The scar above my left eye is something I just can't erase
I try to look in someone else's mirror, try to find a different view
Oh it's really sad to say, but it's all I got left of you
Well I'm the lone survivor of the wreckage that is left
I brought the walls down baby, I made all this mess
Lying in the ashes, I must confess
Oh you had me at my best
The pain sometimes disappears, but your memories are never gone
I lock myself in our bedroom cause it's best if I'm alone
I've been falling asleep in my old chair with the TV on
Cause our bed won't let me sleep, cause love is all it's known
Well I'm the lone survivor of the wreckage that is left
I brought the walls down baby, I made all this mess
Lying in the ashes, I must confess
Oh you had me at my best (2x)
Ya, You Had Me At My Best
You Had Me At My Best
