[Verse 1: Andrew Davie]
Tryin', I'm not there, but I'm tryin'
And honestly, sometimes I think you want too much
Tryin', all this shit is tryin'
I'm not a movie hero, just a guy you say you love
Lyin', you say it's fine, you're lyin'
But how am I supposed to know that? I can't read that stuff
Tryin', can't you see me tryin'?
When did I wake up and find out tryin' isn't good enough?
Oh, woah

[Chorus: Maisie Peters & Andrew Davie]
Oh, I don't wanna tell you I'm leavin'
And I won't if you give me an inch
Oh, I want you to change 'cause you want to change
I know I tried, can you say you did?

[Verse 2: Maisie Peters & Both]
Tryin' doesn't mean you're changing
Doesn't mean the whole thing's getting fixed
Just means you want it to
Tryin' doesn't mean it's better
Doesn't mean you're magically the pеrson that I want from you
Tryin' doesn't make you perfеct
Really, it's the minimum you do for those you love
Tryin', I can see you tryin'
And no one ever told you sometimes trying isn't good enough
Oh, ooh
[Chorus: Maisie Peters & Andrew Davie]
Oh, I don't wanna tell you I'm leavin'
And I won't if you give me an inch
Oh, I want you to change 'cause you want to change
I know I tried, can you say you did?
And I hate you right now, and God, I hate that
You're the love of my life, but this ain't no way to live
I want you to change 'cause you want to change
I tried, can you say you did?

[Verse 3: Maisie Peters, Andrew Davie & Both]
How am I supposed to know you're lyin'?
You're just meant to know
What else is there left to do but tryin'?
Tryin' harder, oh
I don't know how to be what you want from me
And I have a feeling soon you won't be wanting me
I can't believe you can't see when I'm lyin'
Just tell me what to do
I love you and I'm sorry and I'm tryin'
And I'm tryin' too
But I don't know how to be what you want from me
And I have a feeling soon you won't be wanting me
