Front Bottoms, The - Not Yet Lyrics

I know, I know, I know
That I am not the only one confused
About how I felt, I felt, I felt
How this might work out
And maybe you were someone else
I’ve tried, I tried, I tried
And I gave everything I had
And I just gave up, gave up, gave up, gave up

Believe me I’ve tried, and what I found
Was what we have is nowhere near as good as what we should have by now
Goddamn these girls and goddamn their boyfriends
And goddamn the love that they share between them

Follow the sounds of the moon,
Through the air it will help you sleep
To play a part against the secrets I pretend to keep
I’ll tell a joke you'll laugh it all seems fake,
But every smile in my mouth will cooperate
And the only thing keeping me from walking away
Is every muscle in each one of my goddamn legs
On my hands and knees I will crawl to where you're not

Believe me I’ve tried, and what I found
Was what we have is nowhere near as good as what we should have by now
Goddamn these girls and goddamn their boyfriends
And goddamn the love that they share between them

It’s okay, kind of pointless, it's alright, I still regret it
I close my eyes and just pretend you never said it
I never felt whole, the timing was perfect
It’s okay, kind of pointless, you shake your hands and can’t believe I don’t forget it
You were right, you were right

Believe me I’ve tried, and what I found
Was what we have is nowhere near as good as what we should have by now
Goddamn these girls and goddamn their boyfriends
And goddamn the love that they share between them [x2]

Goddamn, I’ve tried
