Trying Too Hard Lyrics

You forget yourself, yeah

You're somebody else

The flaws I felt for you

You only want to perfect

Beneath the mask such a need to protect

Desperate to show me how well you can pretend

Trying too hard

You're trying too hard to earn my love

Playing yourself, pushing me away

Trying too hard to earn what was already in your arms

Trying too hard

Yeah, yeah

You're trying too hard

Where's your innocence?

Has it been lost?

Can't fit in

Where you don't belong

And you'll never fit me inside of your box

You're too controlling to ever get what you want

Trying too hard

You're trying too hard to earn my love

Playing yourself, pushing me away

Trying too hard to earn what was already in your arms

Trying too hard

Yeah, yeah

You're trying too hard

I just want to know who you are

I just want to know who you are

I just want to know who you are

I just want to know who you are

I just want to know who you are

Trying too hard

You're trying too hard to earn my love

Playing yourself, pushing me away

Trying too hard to earn what was already in your arms

Trying too hard

Yeah, yeah

Trying too hard

Trying too hard

Trying too hard, too hard, too hard, too hard
