Trying Too Hard

I fall into bed, a fitful sleep try not to dream

the hours I keep are bringing me down oooohhh.

I wake and I eat the same foods I ate yesterday

trying not to think that you wont be around.

I don't wanna make a scene

don't wanna be a drama queen

Who am I fooling today

Keeping up face

Holding everything in place

But wishing wont make it go away

ohh noo

I jump in my car and drive to work hoping the

traffic inside my head recedes with the day oh yeah.

All colours been bleached from my cheeks reflecting

this sky in indiscernable grey.

I don't want to let em down

don't want to wear this thorny crown

Who am I fooling today

Keeping up face

So you can't detect a trace

Of the damage that you caused when you went away ohh ohh

you're trying too hard, (trying too hard)

you're trying too hard, (trying too hard)

oh and you know I remember

in the back seat of the car

you and me and if I hadnt said those things

that I really meant to say,

maybe, maybe, yeah maybe you might have stayed.

Youve got to wake up to this mess

(gotta make up your mind girl)

No one can save you but yourself ohh

Trying too hard, yeah trying too hard ohh

you're trying too hard, trying too hard

Get out of this place

Get out of this mess

Trying too hard, trying too hard

Pack your suit case

and your toothbrush

and your spare pair of shoes

ohh you're trying too hard

get out of this place

get out of this mess

Trying too hard

Trying too hard.
