lyrics

Verse 1:
Testing one two three
Am I coming through this frequency
‘Cause you haven’t given any
Indication otherwise
I’ve said much too much
Trying to connect you’re out of touch with
All that I’m doing to make you proud

Chorus 1:
So tired of being tested
I’ve been bested trying to be
The best that I can be
But somehow that's still
Not good enough for you
You can always see right through and
Stay disappointed no matter what I do

Verse 2:
Testing four five six
Don’t think I can carry on like this
And I wonder what’s the point of reaching
Out to you
When you still refuse
To acknowledge any path I choose to
Show you that I can be what you want

Chorus 2:
So tired of being tested
I’ve been bested trying to be
The best that I can be
But somehow that's still
Not good enough for you
You can always see right through and
Stay disappointed no matter what I do

Chorus 3:
So tired of being tested
I’ve been bested trying to be
The best that I can be
But somehow that's still
Not good enough for you
You can always see right through and
Stay disappointed no matter what

Final Chorus:
So why am I here
Trapped in this cycle fearing
I will let you down at every turn
I gotta ask myself now
Why is it I still care
It’s not like you’re even there
You’re just a specter go on and disappear
