lyrics

Watching television
Knew what I was wishing
Should get out more often
From this glass coffin

I try
I try

You say you’re tired of living
Look what you’ve been given
Play the cards you've got
Don't try to be what you’re not

I try
I try

(Taking the) path of least resistance
To a nonexistence
Every day
What I want
S’just t'get out
Get out

I try
But I end up getting by
To find the time you have to wait
S'gonna be your last mistake
I try

Family album
Projected on the wall
You ask me if I’m okay
I’m okay with it all

But I lie
I lie

You run around
With new enthusiasm
Run aground
Everybody has 'em

So why try
Why try

Such a pretty thing
You aged into your looks
But you don't know
anything
You didn’t get from books

I try
But I end up getting by
You only ever do what you hate
Find a reason to stay awake
I try

A new discovery
About who you should be
But don’t upset her
You told her you’d do better

I rely
On the things that I despise
I'm candyass and pantywaist
But at least I still can say
That I try
