I Try

Waking slowly, wishing hard
Walking down the boulevard
Just this morning
I could see the way things change
Just this morning I could see
The things you wanted me to be
And I wonder as I walk
Have you let them go

I find a piece of paper
Tucked into my winter coat
It tells me nothing and I
Still don't know where to go
Still don't know where to go
So I wait for a sign
Oh in my floorboards in my coffee in the sky

Oh I
Don't know what I'm try to find
Oh I
I'm never satisfied though I try

I reach the corner
All the streets are paved with gold
I never understood how children grow old
How can we grow old
When childhood never goes away
Do I see it in the mirror every day
I steeped my head in feelings
Just to see if I was wrong
And it seems in hindsight
That I left it in too long
I left it in too long and now it's
Bitter to the taste
And I just gave up but I can't
Say it to your face

Oh I
Don't know what I'm try to find
Oh I
I'm never satisfied
Oh I
I colored outside the lines
Oh I
I'm never satisfied though I try

In my hand I carry
Every dream I've ever had
Oh and I never meant for it to get this bad
Oh it's been really bad but oh I
Don't know where to start
And more than that
Know I don't want to break your heart
It's funny now, but back then
I thought it would be smooth
And every day it's harder not to say the truth
It's hard to say the truth so I say
Nothing and in my mind
Oh I'm still waiting
In the meantime I feel fine

Oh I
Don't know what I'm try to find
Oh I
I'm never satisfied
Oh I
I colored outside the lines
Oh I
I'm never satisfied though I try
