lyrics

The violence of the sea
will always be peace to me
layers on layers of white
noise and might make right
soothing blankets of bliss
evaporate in a mist
I raise my face to the sky
knowing that I'll still try

and we try
and we try
and we try

it doesn't have to be a lie

and we try
oh we try
oh we try

sometimes just close your eyes and listen
to get by

the things that we orchestrate
can always seal our fate
the beauty of compromise
starts with being wise
we build our silent war chest
instead of getting rest
so put those medals on your chest
and live life for the very best

'cause we try
and we try
and we try

it doesn't have to be a lie

and we try
oh we try
oh we try

the sea just breathes a sigh
the sea just breathes a sigh
the sea just breathes a sigh
the sea just breathes a sigh
