slow buildings - trying to be good lyrics

{verse}

it started one october
we fell so deep in love
our love was so encompassing
it fit us like a glove
but now my nights are lonely
and that glove’s turned to a fist
squeezing out my vital ch’i
this urge i must resist
{chorus}

i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
and every night i stay at home
and try to calm my brain

{verse}

i gaze upon the landscape
rolling hills above the sea
peered through bars in glass windows
i’ve thrown away the key
spinning wheels and curfews
turn my soul to caged rust
this fire burning deep inside
i fight it because i must

{chorus}
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
and every night i stay at home
and try to calm my brain

{bridge}

pretty girl, pretty girl, lover for today
pretty girl, pretty girl, your eyes are far away

{verse}

i dreamt we’d turned to statues
with cold stone for our skins
“let me out!”, i tried to shout
but swallowed it again
i’ll find these bricks of virtue
to build the man i want to be
slowly learning to be good
i hope it’s not just me
because i swear
{chorus}

i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
because i should
i’m trying to be good
trying to be good
trying to be good
