Nice Try Lyrics by Patrick Holland

You’re The Boss

2022

[Verse 1]
Open-eyed gaze outside
(No sign from you tonight)
Lately I've ignored false guide
(Speak up if you're behind)
Drag through time
When there's no line
(Drawn by your focused thumb)
Directions drift, I fall off
(I guess this one's my fault)

[Pre-Chorus]
Let it all slide
No friction
Your stride
Speak with a chuckle
And grin on the sly
Now I'm rounded off, not sharp
Unlike the glass that you snapped then slipped on through the dark

[Chorus]
Nice try
You left your ghost behind
You're tied
With me now
Stop dreaming
You think it's just your life?

[Verse 2]
Realize it's all a lie
(As you float overhead)
Stand on time, you'll find out why
(I bore you to death)
Haunt it all fourths yours now
(Out there with no disguise)
Test your kind, I'll hang back
Dream as beams refract

[Bridge]
I miss the signs
Home in to those times
Think about it
And catch the tail end

[Pre-Chorus]
Let it all slide
No friction
Your stride
Your con was convincing, as nightmares grew dry now
No time passed
Returns intact
The tether wins for now
With no impact

[Chorus]
Nice try
You left your ghost behind
You're tied
With me now
Stop dreaming
You think it's just your life?
Good eye
We're on to better things
That's right
I found out
Did you figure?
You figure it was just fine?

[Outro]
Together again
I'll always be your friend
Together again
I'll always be your friend
