James Dean Cotton - As Bad As You Lyrics

Though I have tried my best to find my way
I have made a mess of everything to date
Despite all the promises of good I'd do
Oh, the best that I could hope for was to be as bad as you

Thought I was finally free and full of light
Thought I'd cut it all away with an imaginary knife
But this blood is thicker than a wish that never will come true
Oh, the best that I could hope for was to be as bad as you

I have never found
A lightness of the heart that keeps your feet set on the ground
I may never lose
All the injury that seems to be perpetually reviewed

These colors only grew from grey to blue, and
The little bird I loved she turned and flew
What the travelers I trusted never knew, is that
The best that I could hope for was to be as bad as you

I have never found
A lightness of the heart that keeps your feet set on the ground
I may never lose
All the injury that seems to be perpetually reviewed

Though I have tried my best to find my way
I have made a mess of everything to date
Despite all the promises of good I'd do
All the best that I could hope for was to be as bad as you

Despite all the promises of every bit of good I'd do
All the best that I could hope for was to be as bad as you
Oh, the best that I could hope for was to be as bad as you
