I wrote this over an Ex who would just not let me in on their pain deep down

Song Description

Try in Vain - a hope that your friend and / or lover knows that your efforts to love them is not lost

Lyrics

VERSE 1
You clearly say everything's fine
But I know it aint from time to time
Made up stories things that you hide
You got it all wrapped up deep inside

PRE-CHORUS 1
So I try and try but you keep playing these games
Changing topics shunning the shame

CHORUS 1:
And damned if I do
Damned If I don't
And here's just hoping that I won't
Try in Vein
That I won't Try in Vein
to let out the lion that needs to be tamed
Try in Vain, try in vain (repeat)

VERSE 2
I'm not sure what makes you tick
But I'm sure your heart is nicked
To be let in, is there a trick?
Behind your walls, walls so thick

PRE-CHORUS 2
Your locked doors need to be unbroken
And I'll listen to what's unspoken

CHORUS 2:
And damned if I do
Damned If I don't
And here's just hoping that I won't
Try in Vein
That I won't Try in Vein
to let out the lion that needs to be tamed
Try in Vain, try in vain (repeat)


BRIDGE:
Seeing if the pain that you've accrued
Can be drawn out into view
It's what I try, try to do
To show friendship, and love from me to you

CHORUS 3/OUTRO:
And damned if I do
Damned If I don't
And here's just hoping that I won't
Try in Vein
That I won't Try in Vein
to let out the lion that needs to be tamed
Try in Vain, try in vain
I WONT TRY IN VAIN
