[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Woah-oah-oah-oah-oah
Woah-oah-oah-oah
I don't know why I'm trying
It's hard to feel like you matter when everyone makes you feel like you don't

[Chorus]
Why try if it ain't worth it? (Why try?)
Why lie if you can't do it? (Why lie?)
Why cry with your back to it? (Why cry?)
I'm fine, just a tad stupid (Tad stupid)
Why try if it ain't worth it? (Why try?)
Why lie if you can't do it? (Why lie?)
Why cry with your back to it? (Why cry?)
I'm fine, just a tad stupid

[Verse 1]
Record a bunch of nonsense when I'm feelin' nauseous
Gotta play it cautious if she tryna hang (Tryna hang)
Mirror, mirror on this wall inside my heart
Does falling out of love make a human go insane? (Go insane)
I've tried three times, back it up and rewind
Look into your green eyes, tell me if I change (If I change)
Baby you a goddess, you so fuckin' flawless
I'ma fuck him up if he speaks your name in vain (Speaks your name vain)
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah
If he speaks your name in vain
Woah, woah
Woah-oah-oah-oah-oah
Woah-oah-oah-oah
Yeah, if he speaks your name in vain

[Chorus]
Why try if it ain't worth it?
Why lie if you can't do it?
Why cry with your back to it?
I'm fine, just a tad stupid
Why try if it ain't worth it? (Why try?)
Why lie if you can't do it? (Why lie?)
Why cry with your back to it? (Why cry?)
I'm fine, just a tad stupid
Why try if it ain't worth it? (Why try?)
Why lie if you can't do it? (Why lie?)
Why cry with your back to it? (Why cry?)
I'm fine, just a tad stupid

[Verse 2]
Redemption of a lost mess speedin' up the process
By the time that August comes, you'll know my name (August comes, you'll know my name)
G-u-a-r guardin, yeah, I beg your pardon
Right to all involvement writing through the day (Writing through the day)
Got my castle in the yard, it's kinda fuckin' hard
To stand like I'm on guard when the clouds are seeing rain (Seeing rain)
So my bedrooms more appealing, suffer through the feeling
'Cause I know you're leaving, gotta act like I'm okay (Act like I'm okay)
[Chorus]
Why try if it ain't worth it? (Why try?)
Why lie if you can't do it? (Why lie?)
Why cry with your back to it? (Why cry?)
I'm fine, just a tad stupid (Tad stupid)
Why try if it ain't worth it? (Why try?)
Why lie if you can't do it? (Why lie?)
Why cry with your back to it? (Why cry?)
I'm fine, just a tad stupid

[Outro]
Why try?
Oh, why lie?
Why try?
Why lie?
