When I Drink

When I drink
 I say things I don't wanna 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
