lyrics

you try to keep an open heart
you never know where to start
on the wrong end of a gun
try to be an open book
maybe take a second look
at the lies you could never outrun
every time you need a rest
you come upon another test
your phasers set to stun
you've been talking in your sleep
making promises you could never keep
you slowly come undone

but the best, the best, the best is yet to come
the best, the best, the best is yet to come

afraid of falling off the tour
you won't always be so insecure
this show's a second run
some lessons better left unlearned
the Romans watched while Athens burned
civilization zero, nation-building one
walking through a vacant dorm
a deviation from the norm
never been your kind of fun
do something you fear the most
instead of hiding out from tomorrow's ghost
in yesterday's setting sun

the best, the best, the best is yet to come
the best, the best, the best is yet to come

allow yourself to work out the kinks
the hours pass while eternity blinks
you're wound up tighter than a snare drum
take yourself for a rainy walk
look up from the cracks in the side walk
let the blood flow to where you're numb
point yourself down the nearest road
don't stop till you hit an overload
it doesn't matter where you came from
cause it's who you are not where you've been
if you're wiling to mine the dark within
with a dead flashlight, some duct tape and a couple of outdated rules of thumb

the best, the best, the best is yet to come
the best, the best, the best is yet to come
