Why Not Just Try

Save passionate days
For when nothing is changed
With a pen or a knife
Say what you want to say
What you need to say
It might all a waste
But why not just try
When you're looking for something
Down the barrel of nothing
Not a bullet to waste
Or graze
When you're trying
And they're giving you nothing
But a shadow
And a riddle

You might never mean anything
But a little
You might never see anything
But the middle
You might never be anything
But simple
You might never mean anything
But why not just try?

When you've walked the grid and mapped out every mile
And you feel it deep within everytime you put on a smile
That it's all just an act
Just a mask to be cynical
A cover of fact
That the last thing you'd ever want
Is all your fault

You might never mean anything
But a little
You might never see anything
But the middle
You might never be anything
But simple
You might never mean anything
But why not just

Take my hand
Take a run at it
Get a strong hold
Don't ever let it go again
Cause just as you know it all
Everything will change
And only the light will stay
When you're looking for something
Down the barrel of nothing
Not a bullet to waste
Or graze
When you're trying
And they're giving you nothing
But a shadow
And a riddle
Say what you want to say
What you need to say
It might all be a waste but why not just try
Passionate days for when nothing is changed
It might all be a waste but why not just try

You might never mean anything
But a little
You might never see anything
But the middle
You might never be anything
But simple
You might never mean anything
But why not just
Why not just try
