I Try

I wake up in this nightmare

And I see you standin' there

And I wonder how to get you back

I try to tell you how I feel

But it's never quite enough

Starting to think I'll never be just what you want

And I try to get you

Get you to try to love

And I try to want you

Back enough

For you to even notice

This never felt so wrong

I've never been this hopeless

And never been so strong

I've never been so strong

But I try, I try, I try

Whoa I try, I try, I try

So I leave this, try to forget this

I have to close my eyes to see

But I can't forget the way that we were

As I'm watching her dreams come true

I just exist in black and white

Is this someone else's life that I endure

And I try to get you

Get you to try to love

And I try to want you

Back enough

For you to even notice

This never felt so wrong

I've never been this hopeless

And never been so strong

I've never been so strong

But I try, I try, I try

Whoa I try, I try, I try

But I try, I try, I try

But everything I see is black and white
