Lyrics
Chorus
Why do I even try
When you never hear me when I call
Building dreams on shifting ground
Watching every promise fall
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, I try, I try
Oh oh, I try, I try
Verse 2
Another night alone staring at the ceiling
Questions spinning around in my mind
Tracing shadows on the faded wallpaper
Searching so long for a sign
Pre-Chorus
Maybe I'm just chasing the sun
In a world that always comes undone
But I can't walk away, not tonight
So I ask myself one more time
Chorus
Why do I even try
When you never hear me when I call
Building dreams on shifting ground
Watching every promise fall
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, I try, I try
Oh oh, I try, I try
Bridge
Flickering lights on an empty table
Memories slip through fingers like sand
Echoes of laughter from some distant window
Fade away but still I stand
Verse 3
Pages turning in the book of illusion
Caught between the lines I can't rewrite
Hope drifts in like a silent invasion
Fighting to hold on through the night
Pre-Chorus
Maybe tomorrow the tide will change
Maybe the answer’s rearranged
But I can’t let go, not this time
So I ask myself one more time
Chorus
Why do I even try
When you never hear me when I call
Building dreams on shifting ground
Watching every promise fall
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, I try, I try
Oh oh, I try, I try
Outro
Dawn creeps in with silver on the window
Empty streets whisper to the breeze
Waiting for a sign, some kind of answer
Restless hopes drifting with the leaves
A moment lingers before it fades to morning
Old regrets dissolve into the blue
Still the echo of a distant question
Why do I keep reaching out for you
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, I try, I try
Oh oh, I try, I try
