I look up, see them in the sky far above the rain
Must be a good life, flying up so high, no chances miss their eyes
But then the clouds open up to the rainbow above
I watch as they all pass me by, so many questions in my mind

When things get tough and the world’s too much
A coffee break with me could be what you need
It’s my time to say “We’re gonna be okay”
Because with every end another trial begins

Trial and error, trial and error
“Goodbye” then “Hello,” uphill then downhill
Trial and error, one more step forward
Trial and error

I look back, remembering the start before it all went dark
You could be so far and still light up my heart, teenage superstar
But lately I haven’t seen you put that smile on your face
Life can bring you to your knees, so get back up and just believe

When things get tough and the world’s too much
A break with cake and me could be what you need
It’s your time to say “We’re gonna be okay”
This heartbreak and sorrow might be there tomorrow

Trial and error, trial and error
“Goodbye” then “Hello,” uphill then downhill
Trial and error, one more step forward
Trial and error

In the spotlight, don’t you be surprised if life doesn’t feel bright
Breaking new ground’s the hardest road to take when loneliness awaits
But now I know I’m not alone on this upward slope
One step forward to the sky, this time I’m gonna reach the light

When things get tough and the world’s too much
This next round’s on me ’cause I see what you see
It’s our time to say “We’re gonna be okay”
Smile ’cause we’re free, tonight we’re gonna dream

Trial and error, trial and error
No need to worry, ’cause we’ve got each other
Trial and error, one more step forward
Trial and error, now press “continue”
