Try For Me

I’m being lead by a mind so simple
It takes a lot of me
Am I the paint? Are you the stencil?
It takes a lot of me
Displaying all the words you write in me
Am I the parchment? Are you the pencil?
Write in me something interesting that people want to read
Plucking heartstrings and playing feelings
It takes a lot of me
Deadend results always repeating
It takes a lot of me
I know what’s been keeping you up all night
Try for me
And I know what’s been holding you down all day
I think you owe me this much
Oh, Write in me something interesting that people want to read
It’s in me. Something interesting is being written in me
Oh if you can teach an old heart new tricks
Then teach this one to love again
