[Verse 1]

Yeah, like the threat of the darkest clouds rollin' in on a sunny day

Yeah, like a field that has no rain

Yeah, like a dog that wanders aimless, with no name

Yeah, like a cut without the pain


[Pre-Chorus]

Lie like I'm not even here

My heart is breaking

Trying to see through your stare

It looks right through me

I smile and pretend I'm not there

To keep from going crazy


[Outro]

I've tried to get through to you

I've tried to

I've tried to get through to you

I've tried to get through

I've tried to get through to you

I've tried to
