When I Drink - The Avett Brothers

When I drink

I say things I don't want to 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

Our parents taught us to learn when we miss

They said

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

Because 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

Because 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
