Trying Lyrics by JailBird Sage

trying - Single

2020

[Intro: Emma Watson & Logan Lerman]
I had lunch with Craig today
(Yeah?)
He said he was sorry, and I was right to break up him
I'm driving away, and just feeling...so small
I'm just...asking myself...
Why do I, and everyone I love, pick people who treat us like we're nothing
(We accept the love we think we deserve)


[verse 1: JailBird Sage]
Tear me up, and spit me in the air
Call me your best friend, but I don't really care
Call me, I'll ignore it and leave you on a thread
And then leave you on read
Get out of my head

Call me what you want, I don't have the time
Leave a voicemail, I never rewind
I feel like
I might never find
An adequate peace of mind I would call mine

Mine in the definition of the meaning of the word, meaning something I belong to and vice verse
Like the one I write
As I ride
A train outta here, as I text you a lie
(I tried so hard)

I tried so hard
So keep it simple
And fell asleep like Rip Van Winkle
Van Wilder, I'm wild as
I write it down, on a spiral bound
I tried so hard
To put it down
And maybe even turn around
Oh vertigo
Out of so vertical
I'm trying now, I'm

(trying now, I'm) x2

[Interlude: xadjolifto]
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh ohhh
Oh ohhh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh uh oh
Oh ohhh
Oh ohhh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh ohhh

[Verse 2: JailBird Sage]
Treat me like shit, see if I care
I'll curl up, try and disappear
Like my songs, I right my wrongs
I'll write you one, as I run from here
Bite the bullet, and couch up the shell
Drink the bleach and go to hell
Twist my veins and say farewell
Blow out my brains for material
I'm trying
To break this wall
I'm trying
To make it fall
To say it is, the way it is, while saying sorta nothing at all
I'm trying
(What more do you ask for)

[Interlude: xadjolifto]
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh oh
Oh ohhh
Oh ohhh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh uh oh
Oh ohhh
Oh ohhh
Oh uh oh, oh uh oh, oh uh oh
Oh ohhh

[Outro: Unnamed Train Passenger]
The same...more or less the same, but it was really nice
Met some really nice people, um...ate...a fair bit
Um..uhh...danced, strangely...and just had a good time
And it ended at like 8, so...so six hours...yeah
Well I mean, yeah
And then, I don't know if told you, but it was...the...17th of the 11th. That was actually the date of when he asked her out
Like ten years...ten years ago or something?
And then..um...the wedding is gonna be...a year from now
So pretty much..17th of the 11th, 2020
