The More I Try

I try to be happy, boy
Since you've found love elsewhere
I try to move on and pretend like I don't care
I try to get you out of my head, baby, boy, I swear

But the more I try
The more I die inside

I try to not look when I see you out hanging with her
I try to be cool as if seeing y'all don't hurts
I try to pick a smile but sometimes that don't work

'Cause the more I try
The more I die inside

I try to keep doing like everything is still all good
I try to stop myself from drivin' by your neighborhood
And I try to through away all your letters
But I just can't do

'Cause the more I try
The more I die inside

La, la, la, la
The more I try
La, la, la, la
The more I try

La, la, la, la, la, la
The more I try
The more I try
The more I die inside

I try to change the radio every time I hear our song
I try to erase your number off the cellphone
I try to still be your friend but I ain't that strong

'Cause the more I try
The more I die inside

I walked away from you
But somehow you still have my heart
And even though we've grown apart
How I wish I could be were you are

I've tried, I've tried, I've tried
I've tried to get you out of my mind
But it seems the more I try
The more I die, die

I try, I try, I try
To get you out of my mind
Oh I miss you, boy, I miss you

But the more I try
The more I die inside

I try to tell myself that I should let your memory go
I try not to reminisce about you and just give a poke
I try to keep pretending
That I am really happy for you both

But the more I try
The more I die inside
