Try Better (Live in Europe 2023) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
At the core of the earth it's too hot to breathe
There's nothing much to eat and everybody leaves
There's a place in the forest where the animals dance
Carefree and joyous like nobody's watching
And nobody's watching

So they laugh and they dance around mahogany trees
Completely unawares they're gonna end up as meat
And nobody's watching

[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry bеtter next time

Wakе up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up

[Verse 2]
So you know me, understand me
Is that what you think?
You haven't met the monster who wakes up when I drink
I was born out of time, I'm not meant to be here
With the weight of the world and the weight of a tear
Are exactly the same
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up

[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up

[Verse 3]
There's a spot in the ocean and that's where we'll meet
Somewhere far away where fish can nibble at our feet
And we can grow fins, go back in the water
Grow fins go back in the water
Grow fins go back in the water
Grow fins go back in the water
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up

[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up

[Verse 4]
It's a gas, it's a party on this planet of flakes
Somebody take a picture before it's too late

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
