Miserable At Best by Mayday Parade
Katie, don't cry, I know
You're trying your hardest
And the (1)______________ part is (2)______________ go
Of the nights we shared
Ocala is calling and you (3)________ it's haunting
But compared to your eyes
Nothing shines quite as bright
And (4)________ we look to the sky
It's not mine, but I want it so
Let's not pretend (5)________ you're (6)__________ tonight
I know he's there and
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
While (7)____________ the room, he stares
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my (8)________ to dance
She'll say yes
Because these (9)__________ were never easier
For me to say
Or her to (10)____________ guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable at best
You're all that I (11)__________ I'd find
In every single way
And everything I would give
Is everything you couldn't take
'Cause nothing (12)__________ like home
You're a thousand (13)__________ away
And the (14)______________ (15)________ of living is just
Taking breaths to stay
'Cause I (16)________ I'm good for something
I just haven't (17)__________ it yet
But I (18)________ it
So let's not (19)______________ like you're (20)__________ tonight
I know he's there and
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
While (21)____________ the room, he stares
I'll bet he (22)________ the nerve to (23)________ the floor
And ask my girl to dance
She'll say yes
Because these words were (24)__________ easier
For me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live (25)______________ you but
Without you I'll be miserable
And I can (26)________ without you but
Without you I'll be miserable
And I can (27)________ without you but
(Oh) without you I'll be miserable at best
You're trying your hardest
And the (1)______________ part is (2)______________ go
Of the nights we shared
Ocala is calling and you (3)________ it's haunting
