Day is gone and night comes in, you leave me feeling wanting more
Waiting here expecting you, you throw me out without a word
Feeling's gone but the pain returns, kind of thing I can't recall
Window's shut and the door is locked
Hear your voice at the back of the room
Stare right through the sight of you, you keep hidden from the light

The harder I try, the more it seems to take
The more I try, it gets further away
The harder I try, the more it seems to take
The more I try, it gets further away (3x)
It gets further away, further away (4x) It gets
(Further away) (4x)

Mind says everything's over but my body knows that there's more to come
Changing all your alibis, walking out to catch the bus
Open your eyes to a brand new world, you're in my arms and dropping down
Keeping secrets in your eyes, find me with the sun on my face
Burn me with the things that you say, you keep hidden from the light

The harder I try, the more it seems to take
The more I try, it gets further away
The harder I try, the more it seems to take
The more I try, it gets further away (3x)
It gets further away, further away (4x) It gets
(Further away) (4x)

The harder I try, the more it seems to take
The more I try, it gets further away
The harder I try, the more it seems to take
The more I try, it gets further away (3x)
It gets further away, further away (4x)

The harder I try
Harder I try (6x)
Harder I try (It Gets) (4x)
Further away, further away
It gets further away, further away (3x)
It gets further and further and further
And further and further away, it gets further away
It gets further and further and further
And further and further away, it gets further away
It gets further and further and further
And further and further away, it gets further away
