lyrics
You’re always trying.
You’re talking deadpan.
You’re always trying.
You just just just live to be
Just live to be...
heard for all you’ve got to say.
Dying to know if you'll be seen,
for all you have to show.
This pretense to be cool, no time for sincerity.
But you’re right here with me—why are you trying so hard?
I feel a little,
just feel a little bit tired of the grind.
Oooh, just a little bit weary of the way.
I give it all, I give it all,
give it all I can give.
Like The Stranger in his wake,
to take the wheel and pull the emergency brake.
You’re always trying, you just live to be...
heard for all you’ve got to say.
Dying to know if you'll be seen,
for all that you have to show.
This pretense to be cruel, no time for sincerity.
But you’re right here with me—why are you trying so hard?
(whistling commences)
You're always trying.
You’re always trying so hard.
You gotta.
You need to.
You wanna.
You need to.
You’re always trying.
You’re talking deadpan.
You’re always trying.
You just just just live to be
Just live to be...
heard for all you’ve got to say.
Dying to know if you'll be seen,
for all you have to show.
This pretense to be cool, no time for sincerity,
but you’re right here with me—why are you trying so hard to be...
heard for all you’ve got to say.
Dying to know if you'll be seen,
for all you have to show.
This pretense to be cruel, no time for sincerity,
but you’re right here with me—why are you trying so hard?

Blumarelo—Latin-influenced rhythms. A splash of indie rock. Mix well before use.
