Horrorshow Lyrics



The rope round my neck

The streak in my hair

The spring in my step

From the socks that I wear



And when I play this song,

It's like I'm still there

And you don't know what it means to me



Cos I try my best to be the best that I can

I want so much to be everybody's friend



Well if it's supposed to hurt

It hasn't done yet

The best of the few

That haven't been met



And the simplest thing could remind me of that

That soft-spoken lie

I'll never forget



Sing!



I try my best to be the best that I can

I want so much to be everybody's friend

Oh yeah, I try my best to be the best that I can

I try so hard to be everybody's friend



And I try

Yes I try



I want so much to be

It's in my heart to be

I try so hard to be

It's in my heart



I try my best

I try my best

And no, I don't sleep

I never rest



My aching heart

Is emptiest

When I'm alone



The way that I think,

It seldom makes sense

The words don't come out

The way they were meant

So if I'm quiet

Please don't take offence



Cause you don't know what it means to me

No, you don't know what it means to me

No, you don't know what it means to me

No, you don't know what it means to me

No,

No,

No,

No...
