lyrics
Be strong, smoke less
Maybe you’ll feel less depressed
I’ve tried but I
Need something to relax my mind
Be strong, drink less
Maybe you’ll be less of a mess
I’ve tried but I
Need something to occupy my time
I guess I’d do anything
Just to be your everything
I’m just trying to try my best
But you seem like yourself less and less
And nobody wants a mess
I’m just trying to try my best
Be strong, eat well
If you’re better, she can tell
I’ve tried, but I
Still miss her, all of the time
Sometimes I just feel so fried
Guess I replaced her getting high
I’m just trying to try my best
But you seem like yourself less and less
And nobody wants a mess
I’m just trying to try my best
Well you can keep your wisdom
But I should check my health
I feel it in my system
And I don’t look so well
If I quit I’ll miss them
Only time will tell
Maybe I should listen
And discipline myself
I’m just trying to try my best
But you seem like yourself less and less
And nobody wants a mess
I’m just trying to try my best
Maybe you’ll feel less depressed
I’ve tried but I
Need something to relax my mind
Be strong, drink less
Maybe you’ll be less of a mess
I’ve tried but I
Need something to occupy my time
I guess I’d do anything
Just to be your everything
I’m just trying to try my best
But you seem like yourself less and less
And nobody wants a mess
I’m just trying to try my best
Be strong, eat well
If you’re better, she can tell
I’ve tried, but I
Still miss her, all of the time
Sometimes I just feel so fried
Guess I replaced her getting high
I’m just trying to try my best
But you seem like yourself less and less
And nobody wants a mess
I’m just trying to try my best
Well you can keep your wisdom
But I should check my health
I feel it in my system
And I don’t look so well
If I quit I’ll miss them
Only time will tell
Maybe I should listen
And discipline myself
I’m just trying to try my best
But you seem like yourself less and less
And nobody wants a mess
I’m just trying to try my best
