We Were Trying to Make It Out Lyrics by Jeremy Neale

We Were Trying to Make It Out

2020

[Verse 1]
It's synthesised, I hate the city
And you're the first to know
But don't worry
I won't do anything drastic or new
[Verse 2]
Pay it back in time with interest
We’re all gamblers, right?
In a hurry, yeah, to lose our time
I'm ashamed I do
[Chorus]
A sleepless night, these thieves, they steal our lives
I hope you stay, but, oh, you don't have to
It's only wise to take your own advice
I empathise with those who are trying to make it out
[Post-Chorus]
So mind what you do if it's hurting you
And be kind when all that you dreamed has deserted you
Give me time
[Verse 3]
It’s never worth the time invested
But how was I to know
'Til you told me that I've lost my spark?
And I know it's true
[Chorus]
A sleepless night, these thieves, they steal our lives
I hope you stay, but, oh, you don't have to
It's only wise to take your own advice
I empathise with those who are trying to make it out
[Post-Chorus]
So mind what you do if it's hurting you
And be kind when all that you dreamed has deserted you
Give me time
[Refrain]
We were trying to make it out
[Post-Chorus]
So mind what you do if it's hurting you
And be kind when all that you dreamed has deserted you
There's a time when all you've been through catches up with you
So be kind when all that you dreamed as deserted you
Give me time
