I tried to find a reason
So I tried to find out
It' all worth trying
And what it's all about
I tried to take advantage
Of everything I know
I try to be so special
But I'm trying not to show
Oh no!

I tried to fight the person
That I'm trying to be
I tried to open up my eyes
But I don't wanna see
I tried to do it slowly
I tried to do it fast
I try to find a feeling
And to make it last

I even tried to be somebody else
But everything I try goes straight to hell

I try to do it better
I try, try, try
It brings me down and I wonder why
I try to do it better
I try, try, try
To find a way out and still I wonder why

And I tried to be so wise
I tried to play the fool
I tried to stay alone
I tried to be the one for you
Now I'm so tired of trying
That I'm trying not to try
But I'm so scared of lying
To myself until I die

I even tried to be somebody else
But everything I try goes straight to hell

I try to do it better
I try, try, try
It brings me down and I wonder why
I try to do it better
I try, try, try
To find a way out and still I wonder why

All attempts have been in my vain
Everytime I feel the strain
I'm about to lose my head I try try try
Sweaty hands and biting nails
As one more trial fails
I'm about to lose my head I try try try
All attempts have been in my vain
Everytime I feel the strain
I'm about to lose my head I try try try
Sweaty hands and biting nails
As one more trial fails
I'm about to lose my head I try try try

I try to do it better
I try, try, try
It brings me down and I wonder why
I try to do it better
I try, try, try
To find a way out and still I wonder why
