it turns out
i'm not what you're about
and it turns in
to the pit of my stomach
i'm left out
and you're right in there
we couldn't be more opposite if we tried

so we try, we try and we fail
just like those times before
we try, we try, we try and we fail
just like those times before

so i know
you are not what i'm about
and yet i continue
to know you
and know that i'm without
that endearing smile

so we try, we try and we fail
just like those times before
we try, we try, we try and we fail
just like those times before
