Carrie Elkin - Did She Do Her Best lyrics

rate me

His heart is full

With steal wool

And the bottom of his feet

Have been put to rest

He can’t dig that deep no more

Cause the guilt she laid upon him

When she came undressed

Madness swirled around

It was unfolded unpressed

And all she wants to know is darlin’

Did she do her best?

She just started smoking again

She opened up her mouth

Let the sin back in

And it choked her

She can’t see in the dark no more

Cause he took away the space

She’d been saving it for denial

Madness twirled round in her heart

Like it hasn’t in a while

Did she do her best

To put her world at unrest

Did she do her best

To put her man at rest

He must have known the time

But the clock was like a brick on her chest

She wrote bout the jeopardy of circumstance

With the ground so soft

The trees are falling through the earth

And she’s just willing for one more chance

To burn it all down

And give back whatever it’s worth

Madness swirled round

And the whole damn thing was unearthed

Did she do her best

To put her life at unrest

Did she do her best

To put her man at rest

He must have known the time

But the clock was like a brick on her chest

And all she wants to know is darling

Did she do her best

And all she wants to know is darling

Did she do her best

And all she wants to know is darling.
