next try

(album: everythingeverydayeverything - 2022)

One, two, three

When I wake up
And it's not light
And I wanna try
Wait till it's bright
And it creeps up
And you're not there
And the days dead
I'm not sure where

Taking quick steps
Having slow talks
My throat all dry
It feels like chalk
Trying to make sense
Doing guesswork
In a messy room
My untucked shirt

Oh, I don't wanna lose the time together
Oh, maybe on the next try we'll do better
Oh, I don't wanna blame it on the weather
Oh, maybe on the next try we'll do better

Second guessing
Cause you make sense
And I'm sick of
Sitting on the fence
So I switch sides
See how it feels
Got so dizzy
Had to skip a meal

When we're outside
And it might rain
We could wait a bit
Or maybe just blame
It on that one time
That I couldn't sleep
And I start to miss
You a heap

Oh, I don't wanna lose the time together
Oh, maybe on the next try we'll do better
Oh, I don't wanna blame it on the weather
Oh, maybe on the next try we'll do better

Do better...

Oh, I don't wanna blame it on the weather
Oh, maybe on the next try we'll do better
