Lyrics

Try It Again

Looking for friends and you try it again

But all of the signs just say you're wasting your time

You know you're not perfect

But you know you're not worthless

All the people walk past

And they're talking so fast

But you try it again and you try it again

Try it again until you feel so low

Try it again and you try it again

Try it again because it can't be so

It can't be so hard

But it's a world that's unfair, look at that lady there

Not a dime in her hands, not a ghost of a chance

Got a room to myself, i've got my art and my health

This loneliness in my guts must just mean that i'm nuts

So I try it again and I try it again

Try it again until I feel so low

Try it again and I try it again

Try it again because it can't be so

It can't be so hard

Looking for love but we're round and above

But it's all just a lark, just a guess in the dark

But if we don't change our ways then I guess it all stays

All we need is a touch but we need it so much

So we try it again and we try it again

Try it again until we feel so low

Try it again and we try it again

Try it again because it can't be so

It can't be so hard
