trial / error

Call it a defect, call it a curse
Open my mouth and brace for the worst
But I just can't stop to save my life
I just can't stop
I am a solver, formulate
Fixes for the shitty situations I create
Then I fuck them up all over again
And I fix them up, I know how this ends

I'm tired of the trial and error
Are we seeing any clearer?
Can we fall into each other like we do?
Figures in a funhouse mirror
I'm sick of feeling my heart sinking
And never knowing what you're thinking
I guess we're simply incompatible
Oh no

It's on again and off again
And on again and off again

When you sink into my side
A welcome embrace, I'm overcome with pride
It's what I miss the most, I know we missed the boat
I know it isn't 'we', I miss you being close
So if this is the last time you're gonna ask
I'm over all the memories and bringing up the past lies
Don't sing a different tune, just let me be with you
No, you ain't leaving after all the shit that we've been through

I'm tired of the trial and error
Are we seeing any clearer?
Can we fall into each other like we do?
Figures in a funhouse mirror
I'm sick of feeling my heart sinking
And never knowing what you're thinking
I guess we're simply incompatible
Oh no

Fine, you're still on my mind
Like an ache no medicine could shake
I'm a wall talking to myself
I never break, and I don't need your help this time
Fine, you're still on my mind
Like an ache no medicine could shake
I'm a wall talking to myself
I never break, and I don't need you

I'm tired of the trial and error
(What'd you try to do to me?) Are we seeing any clearer?
Can we fall into each other like we do?
Figures in a funhouse mirror (What do you plan to do?)
I'm sick of feeling my heart sinking
And never knowing what you're thinking (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
I guess we're simply incompatible
Oh no
