Tried and Failed

If I duck out of socials but still take photos Do the pictures sit on my phone feeling lonely? If I build a soapbox out of recycled quotes Can we stand upon it, shouting into our echo chamber? I don't know where we're going Each new song starts with the first word of the verse Then runs into the distance Fire away 'cause I can't feel nothing at all today I wish that I could change things But I've tried to fail again I've tried to fail If I duck out of vocals and just write prose Will I be more comfortable with the way that I'm aging? If we build our hopes up then this implodes Will you still be proud of the band that we built up together? There is no way of knowing If each new song starts with the first word of the verse What's waiting in the distance Fire away 'cause I can't feel nothing at all today I wish that I could change things But I've tried to fail again I've tried to fail to document this night Do we do it for the love or for the likes? I've tried to fail again I've tried to fail Emily told me that I should listen to my body That I should get some rest But why should I try When the world outside is killing me anyway Emily told me that I should listen to my body And that she knows what's best But why should I try When the world outside is killing us all Why should I try? Why should I try? Why should I try? Fire away 'cause I can't feel nothing at all today I wish that I could change things But I've tried to fail again I've tried to fail to document this night Do we do it for the love or for the likes? I've tried to fail again I've tried to fail
