Best Shot
Heart Like War Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ive seen you come around this place
I can’t ignore that every single plan
we made fell right through the floor
There’s only one place I can find you
on the bathroom floor next to broken glass
You know you’ve lost yourself
When you feel like you are losing it
In your darkest moments
When you feel like giving up
Don’t give up
Give it your best shot
Give it your best shot
Give it your best shot
These words we say shoot faster
than a loaded gun can fire
These tired eyes of mine
are filling up with more regret
If I told you not to leave me
would you stay behind to break this silence
I’ll never make it on my own
When you feel like you are losing it
When you feel like you are on your own
In your darkest moments
When you feel like giving up
Don’t give up
Give it your best shot
Give it your best shot
Give it your best shot
When you feel like you are losing it
When you feel like you are on your own
In your darkest moments
When you feel like giving up
Don’t give up
Give it your best shot
Give it your best shot
Give it your best shot
