"Good As It Gets" lyrics

"Good As It Gets"

I'm not who I used to be
I wouldn't know that guy if he was standing in front of me
I got this tendency
Just leave it up to me, to be sad in paradise

I got a good heart but fuck it up for the art
Had a good life, I could never really see that
Got so bad, lookin' for love in the trash
If I had it, I wouldn't know how to keep it

Well, maybe I'm a mess
And maybe I'm depressed
And maybe I'll just find out who I am and I won't like who it is
And I'm a wreck
I do it for the sex
And maybe I gotta realize this is as good as it gets
(Maybe)
(Maybe)

I try to retrace my steps
Maybe I'll find where it all fell apart, but I haven't yet
Cash in another check
Yeah, I'm spending all my money just trying to forget

I got a good heart, but sometimes I'm a little dark
Had a good life, I could never really see that
Got so bad, lookin' for love in the trash
If I had it, I wouldn't know how to keep it

Well, maybe I'm a mess
And maybe I'm depressed
And maybe I'll just find out who I am and I won't like who it is
And I'm a wreck
I do it for the sex
And maybe I gotta realize this is as good as it gets
Maybe (maybe), maybe (maybe)
Maybe this is just as good as it gets
Maybe (maybe), maybe (maybe)
Maybe this is just as good as it gets

Lately, I'm a mess
I think that I'm depressed
Sometimes it's the best that I can do to just get out of my bed
I'm still a wreck
The last time I checked
Maybe I just gotta realize that this is a- fuck, whatever

Well, maybe I'm a mess
And maybe I'm depressed
And maybe I'll just find out who I am and I won't like who it is
And I'm a wreck
I do it for the sex
And maybe I gotta realize this is as good as it gets
Maybe (maybe), maybe (maybe)
Maybe this is just as good as it gets
Maybe (maybe), maybe (maybe)
Maybe this is just as good as it gets
Maybe (maybe), maybe (maybe)
Maybe this is just as good as it gets
Maybe (maybe), maybe (maybe)
Maybe this is just as good as it gets
