Try Again
Prides Lyrics

I've seen a lack of gracious days
As you get older, you will notice that there are not many kind and deeply thoughtful days.

The nights are full of endless lovers games
People play love games throughout the night without ever revealing their true feelings.

The hollow promises of troubled tongues
People cleverly promise things they have no intention of keeping to further their own interests.

They never quite understand what they've done
People do not understand the full impact of their actions.

Oh give me something to numb it yeah
The artist needs something to suppress their senses, perhaps drugs or alcohol, to avoid feeling the full extent of their emotions.

Give me something to keep the lunacy fed
The singer needs something to maintain their insanity and current state of mind.

And oh with such a heavy head
The singer has a heavy mental burden.

We leap into the devils bed
The 'devil's bed' represents temptation and the artist is giving into their desires or impulses.

"Don't you want to try again?"
Someone is asking the artist if they want to attempt something new or if they want to give a relationship another chance.

She said "oh don't you want to try again?"
The same question is being repeated by someone, perhaps a romantic partner.

My temper has a mind all of it's own
The singer has a fiery temper that is outside of their control at times.

And every time it rains the trouble shows
Whenever something bad happens or there is adversity (represented by rain), the consequences of the artist's actions or behavior become apparent.

(She said "Don't you want to try again?")
The repeated question is being asked again.

(Don't you want to try again?")
The same repeated question is being asked yet again.
