Try Too Hard © 2008 words and music by Brian S. Cram You try too hard to get me to like you You want to be my new best friend whatever it takes You tell tall tales to try to impress me You make promises you just can't keep You want me to stay but you push me away 'cause you try too hard You blow so much smoke I can't see your true flame Well, you might be cool, but how would I know The faces you show hide the real person inside And the person inside just might be a regular Joe It should be a breeze to put me at ease But you try too hard Relax, and just be yourself (solo) Don't show me your head shot Don't show me your resume Don't show me your press pack 'cause I'll show you the door 'cause you try too hard Just be yourself Personnel: Brian Cram - guitar, bass, vocals Bob Boulding - guitar Jon Mattox - drums Shawn Nourse - drums Bob Harrington - engineering (Guinea Pig Sound) Sebastian Sheehan - drum engineering (Bright Orange) Jon Mattox - engineering (Bright Orange)
