I Did My Best

Let Your Dim Light Shine

Holed up in the dressing room without a dress
Kneeling at the confessional with nothing to confess
And i knew all about my surprise party
I was spoiled & depressed
Hey i acted surprised & i told lots of lies
Yes i did my best

Stop the truck at the truck stop, i need something to help me crash
Food stamps, checks & credits cards, but they only accepted cash
There was sweat beating on my brow
My heart was beating out of my chest
So i stole everything they couldn't give away
Yes i did my best

And i did the best that i could do
With all the mess that i've been through
What did you expect me to do
I did my best for you

I was waiting for a chain reaction with the missing link
Waiting for that trickle-down forever circling the sink
I was tired of being tired
I could not get no rest
So i kept sleep-walking & talking in my sleep
Yes i did my best

And i did the best that i could do
With all the mess that i've been through
What did you expect me to do
I did my best for you
