“The Best Thing” Lyrics:
If I could only read your mind
Then I could be the one you need
I’m really good at taking care of everybody else but me
Maybe if I act real nice
Maybe if I smile real big
Maybe I could change the shape of who am ‘til I fit in

I guess I lost myself
Trying to be somebody else

So I’ll sing a song that only I can sing
A melody nobody knows but me
A million things I could pretend be
Maybe best thing I can be is me
Maybe the best thing
Maybe the best thing
Maybe the best thing I can be is me

If I ever show my face
Nothing left to hide behind
Would anybody stay right here with me no matter what they find
It’s easier to shut my mouth
It’s easier to just agree
To put my heart inside a box
Turn the lock and hide the key

I guess I lost myself
Trying to be somebody else

So I’ll sing a song that only I can sing
A melody nobody knows but me
A million things I could pretend be
Maybe best thing I can be is me
Maybe the best thing
Maybe the best thing
Maybe the best thing I can be is me

I have something to say
I can’t keep it inside
The world needs more people who are truly alive
I have a voice
And I have a name
This life is a gift
It’s not a mistake
Oh, I have to believe I’m not a mistake
