Lyrics - Try by Pilgrim Billy

Another sleepless night, turn off my lightturn it off
Open my books, take in silence,and wait for the dawn
Lock myself into place
Keep the sun off my face
When the morning comes
TRY to keep it all in sight
Form one thought, break it off, take a breath,carry on
You think you matter so muchthat you're the only one
In your mind you're a starthat
I can see from afar
Before you've even begunto
TRY to keep it all in sight
If you feel it then open your heart
No need to ask it what for tried to conquer all in sight
Walled their cities as high as they could
Kept them apart from themselves
Fought for ages and raged on the plainswith reasons misunderstoodbut to the common good
Raised up their idols proteced their own walked on dinosaur bones
Spread a pestilent nature from mountain to sky
Until the rivers ran dryand the rivers ran drythat they owned
Watch the lights flash by my window
Throw ghosts on the wall
And every room in my houseanswers back when
I call
Trace the outline within
Trust in dreams to begin
TRY to keep it all in sight
And
TRY to work it all out
TRY if you will,
TRY if they won't
You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't
TRY
