Trying

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, I can't get out Invisible handcuffs locked on me Been praying for my period all week And relief that I just can't see I question everything My focus, my figure, my sexuality And how much it matters or why it would mean anything I can't keep it together I've been better I've been thinking about it every night [Chorus] I'm trying, I am I'm trying, I am Trying to hide from my mind, I am Trying all the time, I am Trying to hide from my mind, I am Trying, trying Why am I? [Verse 2] I can't get out There's no flawless education, just a stupid degree The feeling of growing so far from myself I can't reach, I can't reach, I can't reach So I brush it off, 'cause I want it bad And there's no dusting up When you want like that Here's a ship, there's a wreck Better keep yourself in check 'cause All these loaded questions gonna eat you alive [Chorus] I'm trying, I am I'm trying, I am Trying to hide from my mind, I am Trying all the time, I am Trying to hide from my mind, I am Trying, trying Why am I? [Breakdown] If it counts for anything I didn't want to I'm just looking for clarity To help me get through If you're set in your ways What can I do? Ease up so that I can break it down for you Can't feed a beast you Leave unleashed It'll come right back to you I'm trying [Outro] Trying to hide from my mind, I am Trying all the time, I am Trying to hide from my mind, I am Trying, trying Why am I? Why am I? Why, why? Why am I?
