One More Try
All of my attempts have failed
Everyone can see
My plans were so detailed
But I still have my afternoon tea
Could I give it one more go
Would anybody even care
I know I am a mess
I've tried to be better
I'll just pick my favorite dress
I'll try to leave tomorrow
I hope it works this time
Would it matter at all
I'm on my knees
I know how to crawl
No need to remind me
I'll give it one more try
I'll become one with the sea
Maybe then I'll fly
