Trying

[Verse 1]
Whether you float
Whether you fall
Whether you come to light or come back to me at all
If you can walk you can crawl
My skin feels rough
I run away from the ones that I love
Hope that they’ll stay and confirm what I was
Something better than this

[Bridge]
And I grow tired of chasing friends in this city
I grow cold of feeling old in my twenties
How do you let go?
When you’re on your own
Words cutting

[Chorus]
Why are you always giving up on me
Can’t you see I’m trying
Can’t you see I’m trying

[Verse 2]
I know the weight of it all
I’ve felt it before
First when I was sixteen and got drunk at a mall
Thought all these happy people
I can never be like them all
And еven when I am it doesn’t feel right
Doеsn’t feel right at all

[Bridge]
I’ve grown tired of erasing myself in this city
I’ve grown old just chasing love in my twenties

[Chorus]
Why are you always taking it out on me?
Can’t you see I’m trying
Can’t you see I’m not lying

[Breakdown]
All of your secrets
They hold a place in my heart
I will not tell them I write them all on my walls
I fear my anger
You bring it out in me
I want to be the cure
I want to be the relief

[Chorus]
Why are you always giving up on me
Can’t you see I’m trying
I’m trying, I’m trying
Can’t you see I’m trying
I’m trying, I’m trying
