[Verse 1]

Try to be

Try to be the brightest star

You're not demanding enough

You're not commanding enough

Try to be

Try to be the brightest star

You're not demanding enough

You're not commanding enough

[Verse 2]

Try to speak

Try to speak the clearest thought

You're not commanding enough

You're not pretending enough

Try to clean

Try to clean your filthy heart

You're not healthy enough

You lost the timing and touch

[Chorus]

Living on the edge of your backseat dear

I never had a chance

Always smiling with a head full of fear

I just never cared

[Bridge]

It's getting darker now in the morning

I don't think the sun will rise today

[Chorus]

Living on the edge of your backseat dear

I never had a chance

Always smiling with a head full of fear

I just never cared

[Verse 3]

Try to be

Try to be the brightest star

Try to speak

Try to speak the clearest thought

You're not commanding enough

You're not pretending enough
