Try, Try, Try Lyrics
Pop tart
what's our mission
do we know
but never listen
for too long
they held me under
but I hear
it's almost over
in detroit
on our memphis train
like you said it's
down in the heat and the summer rain of
the automatic gauze of your memories
down in the sleep at the airplane races
try to hold on
to this heart
a little bit longer
try to hold on
to this heart aloud
try to hold on
for this heart's
a little bit colder
try to hold on
to this love
paperback scroll your hidden poems
written around the dried out flowers
here we are still trading places
to try to hold on
pop tart
can you envision
a free world
of clear devision
for too long
they held us under
but i know
we're getting over
in detroit
with the nashville tears
like you said it's
down in the heat with the broken numbers
down in the gaze of solemnity
down in the way you've held together
to try to hold on
to this heart
a little bit closer
try to hold on
to this love aloud
try to hold on
for this heart's
a little bit older
try to hold on
for this love aloud
and we are still alive
try to hold on
and we have survived
try to hold on
and no one should deny
we tried to hold on to the pulse of a feedback current
into the flow of encrypted movement
slapback kills the ancient remnants
that try to hold on
try to hold on
to this heart alive
try to hold on
to this love aloud
try to hold on
and we are still alive
try to hold on
and we have survived
try to hold on
pop tart
you never listen
skin knees
try to hold on
stop start
what's our mission
skin knees
try to hold on
what's our mission
do we know
but never listen
for too long
they held me under
but I hear
it's almost over
in detroit
on our memphis train
like you said it's
the automatic gauze of your memories
down in the sleep at the airplane races
to this heart
a little bit longer
try to hold on
to this heart aloud
try to hold on
for this heart's
a little bit colder
try to hold on
to this love
written around the dried out flowers
here we are still trading places
to try to hold on
can you envision
a free world
of clear devision
for too long
they held us under
but i know
we're getting over
in detroit
with the nashville tears
like you said it's
down in the gaze of solemnity
down in the way you've held together
to this heart
a little bit closer
try to hold on
to this love aloud
try to hold on
for this heart's
a little bit older
try to hold on
for this love aloud
try to hold on
and we have survived
try to hold on
and no one should deny
we tried to hold on to the pulse of a feedback current
into the flow of encrypted movement
slapback kills the ancient remnants
that try to hold on
to this heart alive
try to hold on
to this love aloud
try to hold on
and we are still alive
try to hold on
and we have survived
try to hold on
pop tart
you never listen
skin knees
try to hold on
stop start
what's our mission
skin knees
try to hold on

June trys to hold on to glass as he goes Crazy

actually, it's the other way around..
This song is probably the one song that stands out the most, for me, off of the machina album. esp. after seeing the video. the full version of that video is crazy. haunting imagery. kinda changed the song for me, making it sadder, but still love it
Well, you can tell from the page views that this is a very special song...and it is! One of my favorite songs on Machina, but then, i love every song on that album!!!
Billy Corrigan: you have a beautiful mind
yeah,Very special to me as well..,to all you people who have seen this video, and have watched it, it means most to me only because they're not actors, its truly real,My brother is in this video, i still dont know were my brother is at, i do miss him so!!, Do i wonder what he does?,Love for my brother will never be lost.

HOLD THE PHONE! There is an error on the lyrics here. The first line is 'Pop tart' not talk talk, although that's what it sounds like. check out this excellent site for the lyrics explained, with alternate versions that Billy has done live. www.blamo.org/sp/machina.shtml
i really like the alt. version of this song...it's adds so much more to the song but this song is just as great...the video is great...
yeah, i love the video...it´s actually filmed in stockholm (sweden) where i come from!
Yes i like the video too.. on the dvd there is a 15 min. (or less) little movie about the video - i loved that!! - The song is great too
I love this song and the video. To tell you the truth the video made me cry.
Don't feel bad - I did too. And the short film is even more disturbing. Makes you want to do something about it, doesn't it?
