I'll Try

It’s been three long weeks of trying not to call you
It’s been misery and I know I'm to blame
And it’s not like I got all this pent up willpower
'Cause I’d call you now if I knew what to say

And I’ll try to hold back my tears
But goodbye is just not what I want to hear
And I'm tired of changing
Holding my head against the pavement daily
I’ll write you songs until I got none
Hung dry, forever singing love songs
I'm tired of changing
Hope I can admit if it winds up
I want something different

Oh, I sleep too long and I wake up feeling dizzy
Torn apart by the war inside my head
Or maybe it’s that I haven’t been eating
I wasn’t hungry then I ate my words instead

And I’ll try to hold back my tears
But goodbye is just not what I want to hear
And I'm tired of changing
Holding my head against the pavement daily
And I’ll write you songs until I got none
Hung dry, forever singing love songs
I'm tired of changing
Hope I can admit if it turns out
I want something different

I don’t wanna call it before it’s over
I’ll kick the can down the road till I'm sure
I think we both know where it’s going
I'm just not ready to let you go yet
And I don’t think you tried your hardest
It’s not enough if I'm being honest
Never getting what I'm promised
Oh, it was almost what I wanted

And I’ll try to hold back my tears
But goodbye is just not what I want to hear
And I'm tired of changing
Holding my head against the pavement daily
And I’ll write you songs until I got none
Hung dry, forever singing love songs
I'm tired of changing
Hope I can admit if it turns out
I want something different
