Trying Too Hard

I tried so hard to be the person that you wanted me to be,
Guess I can’t be just like you wanted,
But I’ve been thinking that I’m good enough for me.
And I’ve been trying, maybe too hard,
And I’ve been lying to my friends,
‘cause I’ve been dying to get on you,
But it won’t ever be that way again.
So take away that light blue toothbrush
And I’ll take away your front door key
And keep the earrings, if you want to
Can’t think of anything you’ve ever given me
And I’ve been trying, maybe too hard,
And I’ve been lying to my friends,
‘cause I’ve been dying to get on you,
But it won’t ever be that way again.
So take away those damn pajamas,
And take away those ugly shoes,
And keep the necklace, if you want to.
Sometimes you make out better when you lose.
And I’ve been trying, maybe too hard,
And I’ve been lying to my friends,
‘cause I’ve been dying to get on you,
But it won’t ever be that way again.
