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
