Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't see me in this empty place
Just another lonely face
I can't see me here in outer space
It's so hard to leave a trace
[Verse 2]
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes, I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
[Verse 3]
It's a minor earth major sky
Minor earth, major sky
[Verse 4]
I can't see me in this lonely town
Not a friendly face around
Can you hear me when I speak out loud?
Hear my voice above the crowd
[Verse 5]
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes, I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
[Verse 6]
It's a minor earth major sky
Minor earth, major sky
Minor earth, major sky
Minor earth, major sky
[Verse 7]
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes, I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
[Verse 8]
It's a minor earth major sky
Minor earth, major sky
Minor earth, major sky
Minor earth major sky
[Verse 9]
Minor earth, major sky
Minor earth, major sky
[Verse 10]
Major sky
Major sky
Major sky
Major sky
