Trying to Tell

lyrics

Refrain 1:
Baby, baby what I am trying to tell is
some ideas just don’t travel well.
What’s in our heads churns around and
falling out, makes a battle ground.

You say “I don’t think any of this has done you any good.”
Well, with your head full of sand, who’s to think you would!?
I’m so sick and tired of being played for less,
In your world, your shit seems to smell the best.

Refrain 2
And if we try to open doors,
we see how you feel is not just yours.
If we could read between the lines,
We’d figure out what’s yours, what’s mine.

It’s such a freak that you see orange
When I see green.
If I were speaking in Greek you’d know exactly what I mean.
We are living in the same place but are completely lost,
me stuck as underdog and you as alpha-boss.

Refrain 3
And if we try, we might find
how I feel is not just mine.
And if we look, we might see
just who of you is stuck in me.

To you my mouth flaps open wide and closes.
My words are just a mess on the floor.
I ‘m talking too loud, too crazy and too much,
filling the room with noises that are pounding down the door.

Refrain 1
Baby, baby, let’s try.
Let’s try, let’s try.
