Try Hard

Your friends are like a mirror in your face

Showing you, reminding you

Of what a terrible mess that you've made

The person you became

Could never ever hang with who you claim to be

Try hard your constant effort lacks integrity

I'd rather give up my life in the fight

Then take blame for the fall

I'm doing what I want now I'm who

And what I want now

My enemies are living breathing proof

That I will stand up for things I believe in

A walking testament of all the things I won't left be

I refuse to be

Another victim another statistic of your double crossing

Good for nothing ways

Your friends are like a mirror in your face

Showing you, reminding you

Of what a terrible mess that you've made

The person you became

Could never ever hang with who you claim to be

Try hard your constant effort lacks integrity

Look around now you're running in circles and soon I know you'll

Cascade down in and over the waves in which your reason drowns

Try hard, try hard, your lack of substance is killing me

You know you saw this one coming

Your friends are like a mirror in your face

Showing you, reminding you

Of what a terrible mess that you've made

The person you became

Could never ever hang with who you claim to be

Try hard your constant effort lacks integrity

How quickly things can change stumbling forward

And farther away from me

Is it the pain that makes you not want to stay?

Tell me was it worth who you became?

Was it worth the sleepless nights? Do you finally feel ok?

Enter stranger but take heed of what could lie ahead

You may find what you seek may not be everything they said

An apology is the easiest way, easiest way to have the last word

Your friends are like a mirror in your face

Showing you, reminding you

Of what a terrible mess that you've made

The person you became

Could never ever hang with who you claim to be

Try hard your constant effort lacks integrity

How quickly things can change stumbling forward

And farther away from me

Is it the pain that makes you not want to stay?

Tell me was it worth who you became?

Was it worth the sleepless nights? Do you finally feel ok?

Your friends are like a mirror in your face

I'll make sure you won't forget my name
