Trying

Life can feel like a red light screaming "Go"

And everyday means an answer I don't know

This world can make you wanna fake it

And nobody wants to face it alone

It's hard to shake that feeling that your heart's not home

I'm trying to live

Trying to hope

Trying to love

Trying to cope

Life's a war that few of us survive

And I'm just trying to make it out alive

Everyone has a story to be told

And every tongue has a lie it could expose

This world describes all the treatments

To keep all the secrets you want

We've learned how to think without our minds turned on

I'm trying to live

Trying to hope

Trying to love

Trying to cope

Life's a war that few of us survive

And I'm just trying to make it out alive

The pain we go through is what makes us who we are

And if we hold each other through the deepest, darkest parts

Then we can live

Then we can hope

Then we can love

Then we can cope

Life is not a jump

It's all a head-first dive

I'm trying to live

Trying to hope

Trying to love

Trying to cope

Life's a war that few of us survive

And I know we can make it out alive
