Excuse to Try

[Verse 1]
The words she means are those she doesn't say
So slowly running out of things to say
She was not afraid to ring a bell or two
There's no one who can tell her how to feel

[Verse 2]
I just wish that I could help her out
But I'm part of the problem it turns out
She was not afraid to ring a bell or two
And I'm part of the problem it turns out

[Chorus]
I noticed, she thinks I have figured it all out
Surely I get by
But know this, I'm confidently pretending
And that's hard, when you don't have

[Post-Chorus]
An excuse to try, an excuse to try

[Verse 3]
The words she means are those she doesn't say
So slowly running out of things to say
She was not afraid to ring a bell or two
She was not afraid to ring a bell or two
Yeah, I'm part of the problem it turns out

[Chorus]
I noticed, she thinks I have figured it all out
Surely I get by
But know this, I'm confidently pretending
But that's hard, when you don't have, yeah

I noticed, she thinks I have figured it all out
Surely I get by
Know this, I'm confidently pretending
But that's hard, when you don't have, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
An excuse to try, an excuse to try
An excuse to try

[Bridge]
Almost halfway there, still getting you nowhere
Wrap it in a cloud, to figure this out
We're almost halfway there, it's getting you nowhere
Wrap it in a cloud, to figure this out

We're almost halfway there, still getting you nowhere
Wrap it in a cloud, to figure this out
We're almost halfway there, it's getting you nowhere
Wrap it in a cloud, to figure this out
We're almost halfway there

[Outro]
(I noticed, she thinks I have figured it all out)
(Surely I get by) Almost halfway there
(But know this, I'm confidently pretending)
(But that's hard, when you don't have) Almost halfway there

(I noticed, she thinks I have figured it all out)
(Surely I get by) Almost halfway there
(But know this, I'm confidently pretending)
(But that's hard, when you don't have) Almost halfway there

(I noticed, she thinks I have figured it all out)
(Surely I get by) Almost halfway there
(But know this, I'm confidently pretending)
(But that's hard, when you don't have) Almost halfway there
